Victorian UNITED States GLASS Pitcher Jug PATTERN Starburst
We have here another wonderful find in this Exquisite Victorian Glass Pitcher.
It stands about 6 1/2 inches tall, has a width measured across its top surface including pour spout of about 6 inches. The Diameter measured at its base is about 4 1/2 inches. It weighs nearly 3 1/2 pounds as photographed and prior to careful wrapping and packing.
We understand that this lovely Pitcher's Pattern is one of the States Patterns used by the United States Glass Company. Many of their patterns were named for particular states within the United States. We are not exactly certain of the name of this particular pattern, but regardless of the precise name, it is simply Exquisite.
It most likely dates back in time to the late 1890's at the time the U.S. Glass Company was founded when approximately 18 different companies were having a difficult time surviving in a poor economic climate.
We love the rich deep Pressed Pattern with its Starburst alternating with tiny hexagons - all within large oval 'frames'. No detail was omitted here - even the handle is beautifully decorated in the Victorian manner of the time.
This Handsome Victorian U.S. Glass Pitcher is in lovely vintage condition. We have not detected any chips, cracks or repairs and only very minor surface wear.
Just give it a gentle cleaning and it will soon be your newest Antique treasure. It is truly a fine Investment which is sure to not only maintain, but should very well continue increasing in value as more and more time goes by. It will soon bring you very much pleasure as well as numerous compliments and become a most beloved heirloom for your future Generations.
How nice to have this for yourself - or - as a treasured and well-appreciated gift for the Holidays and throughout the year for that very special person in your life!
