Art Deco glass decanter with jigger stopper and 5 shots made in the 1920’s to 1930’s. Flashed in luminous cranberry and etched in Cornflower.
Beautiful set of Art Deco glass decanter cocktail hour accessories. Full size blown glass decanter with a stopper that serves as a shot glass. Included are five standard shot glasses in the same pattern from the same maker.
The glass was hand-formed, then flashed with a deep cranberry, almost ruby, luminous color. The Cornflower decor was wheel cut through the colored flashing revealing the colorless glass beneath.
Cornflower decor was offered by many glass-makers, but the design varied. Cambridge and Fostoria glass are well known for their Cornflower etchings, but the decor here does not match their styles. The key is the two leaves protruding from the top of the Cornflowers.
The decanter measures 9½” tall. The set is in very good condition considering its age and flashed color. There is slight flashing wear on the tips of the rims on the shot glasses. There are no chips or scratches.
