Interesting set of Early American pressed glass with a concave circle pattern. It is a ‘Thousand Eye’ type, reflects the circles within the circles. We have not found a positive identification of the pattern.

The bowl was formed with a four-part mold and is in perfect condition. The jug was blown into a two-part mold with pontil evidence on the base. The jug has a horizontal sharp ringed neck. The rim has sharp vertical ridges and a flat 4-corner spout. There is a tiny imperceptible sliver chip on top-flat surface of the 4-corner rim. Both items were finished with fire-polishing.

Bowl measures 7″ round and 2″ tall. Cruet sized jug is 5¾” tall. Cork is not original (lol). The jug probably had a matching stopper when produced.

Circa estimated to the EAPG era, 1850 to 1910. Probably American made, but could be Irish.
