Description
C-17784
Early American Pressed Glass (EAPG) pitcher featuring a pedestal foot, applied handle, and scalloped lower edge. The body displays a repeating motif of elongated tear drops framing a diamond-point background, creating a richly faceted surface that catches the light. The bold geometric design reflects the transitional aesthetic of late Victorian table glassware, balancing ornament with durable functionality. EAPG was produced widely in the U.S. from the mid-1800s into the early 1900s, becoming a staple of American households. Pieces like this pitcher were commonly paired with matching tumblers or table sets, offering both practicality and decorative flair.
Very good condition with light wear from use; one chip on handle at the top as shot.
7.5" H
