Pairpoint Glass Company Fat White Pig Table Charm with Maker’s Label
Cute Pairpoint Glass Company pig with original Pairpoint sticker still attached. Stylish little figurines like this were used back in the day to decorate and perk table conversation at the dining table. Also called “Whimseys”.
Pairpoint Glass is a very, very old U.S. elegant glass maker associated with Mount Washington Glass and the New England Glass Company. Through the years the company was sold a few times and miraculously is still in business today in Massachusetts.
We believe this little piggy was reproduced from a turn of the 20th Century iconic Pairpoint Pig designed by Jarvis himself. Made sometime between 1950 and 1970.
Measures 3″ long, 2½” wide and 2½” tall. Weighs 12 ounces. Made by hand with tool pinched ears, feet and nose. Tightly curled piggy tail was made separately and applied. In excellent condition.
