Description
Hand Blown Circus Tent Jar
Unusual and beautiful circus tent blown glass covered jar from 1950s. The jar was made in Italy. It was hand blown in smoke black glass with applied inverted foot. This lovely piece has small trapped air bubbles within the thick glass. This is common in blown mid-century glass.This domed foot version of the popular mid-century over-sized brandy snifter is hard to find, and is usually found without the circus top lid. The smoke black glass goes great with all decor colors. This piece was probably exported by Empoli Glass, Italy.
This circus tent jar measures 9.75″ tall, 7″ at widest, girth of 18.5″.[color-box]More About Italian, Murano, Venetian Glass[/color-box]
