$125.00Hefty mid-century modern decanter in handblown turquoise blue crackle glass.
Handmade by Rainbow or Pilgrim Art Glass, USA in the mid-20th century. This beautiful decanter is usable. Many decanters of the era were made so large they were used as decor only. This one, although larger than most decanters, is a good size for the bar and your favorite libation.
It’s made with thick vintage glass and weighs 3 lbs. Sturdy and hefty. Measures 12.25″ tall to stopper tip. Circumference of 19″ around.
Rough pontil mark on the seat. The stopper is original to the bottle, seals airtight, but has a bit of a tilt (maker’s miss). The stopper and inner neck are ground to fit.
Sparking clean inside and out.

Huge art glass floor vase jug can hold a huge spray of foliage or flowers and also makes an perfect umbrella holder. It is in excellent condition.

Includes (6) tall flip tumblers and (1) large pitcher #8.

$210.00Big Blenko Art Glass Decanter Charcoal Crackle
This Blenko Art Glass decanter bottle was made in the rare Charcoal color. Item’s in Blenko’s Charcoal color are relatively hard to find. The color was produced only a few years; 1954 to 1958, 1961 to 1962, and 1971.
The giant form was designed by Winslow Anderson, an infamous mid-century glass artist who worked with Blenko from 1947 to 1953. It is a 920L decanter and originally came with a tall teardrop stopper in matching color. This decanter has lost its original stopper. The stoppers are very easy to break and usually don’t survive the years.
The bottle is shown with a ‘married’ ruby glass hand-blown stopper from the same era. The stopper fits well, in itself is hard to find, and looks awesome until a matching charcoal flame stopper is found.
The bottle was mouth-blown, hand-formed, then sheared at the neck opening. It was dipped in ice water while still hot to create the crackle effect. The neck opening rim was fire-polished smooth.
The base still retains Blenko’s inventory label. It reads: “Blenko, Milton W.VA 0920L”. The bottle stands a whopping 16.5″ tall and weighs 3.6 lbs. The neck opening is 1 1/8″ wide (measured from inner wall). In perfect condition. Glass is clean and brilliant.
