Antique American Brilliant Period Cut Glass Step Cut Neck Carafe Decanter Vase

$212.00

Presented is a lovely American Brilliant Period cut glass carafe. This piece is unsigned, like many ABP pieces, but the high quality of the work suggests a high end, well known maker like Hawkes, Tuthill, Dorflinger, or the like. The carafe is a round bodied bottle form, with a tapered neck and flared rim. The body is intricately cut with large hob stars, sections of fine diamond cut design, and other dazzling decoration, while the neck is done in a particularly striking stepped cut, from where it meets the body all the way up to the mouth. The pitcher will hold about 5 cups (1.18 liters/40 fluid ounces) when filled to a reasonable level.

This piece is in excellent overall condition. There is some minor shelf wear to the underside, as you'd expect. There are no chips, no cracks, no breaks, and no repairs. No sickness or clouding to the glass.

The carafe stands about 7 1/2 inches tall, and measures about 6 1/2 inches in diameter -jm
