Black Eyed Susan Round Antique Glass Box
Beautiful and handy antique pressed crystal box. Perfect size for powder and puff or to stash your favorite things inside.
Made of pressed and fire-polished Eapg era crystal. Decorated with deep pressed daisies within a hobstar on the lid. The lid has an inner rim that keeps it from slipping off. The seat has a raised round rim.
This pattern is called ‘Black Eyed Susan’, made by U.S. Glass or its predecessor Jones Cavitt & Co. in the late 1800’s. Nice clarity and quality. Has a couple of small trapped air bubbles within the glass.
The box is in perfect condition. The raised seat rim is encircled with a solid band of bottom-wear from surface contact over the years. This is expected and helps show age. Glass is clean and brilliant, no chips or chiggers.
Thick-walled, heavy crystal. Weighs 1 lb. Measures 4″ wide and 2½” tall.
