Description
An appealing 2-piece collection of vintage artisan glassware, highlighting classic mid-century hand-blown techniques and decorative accents. The cornerstone of the lot is a gorgeous hand-blown art glass pitcher finished in an intense, vibrant emerald green. The body tapers down from a flared, dramatically ruffled three-spout tricorn rim to a bulbous base. It showcases a beautifully executed all-over controlled bubble pattern (seeded glass). The pitcher is finished with an elegantly arched, thick cased clear glass handle attached via a smooth lower curl attachment loop.
Accompanying the art glass piece is a small clear glass beverage cruet jug or individual syrup pitcher from an unknown maker. The clear jug is designed with a flared collar rim, a bulbous lower midsection, and an integrated clear loop carry handle. The interior reservoir is currently displayed containing a collection of transparent decorative purple acrylic hearts.

True Handle Connections: The applied clear glass handles on both pieces are firmly fused to their respective bodies. The joints are solid, stable, and completely free of fracturing along the stress lines.
True Base & Artisan Anomalies: The undersides of both jugs exhibit light, honest shelf scuffing from historical display. The base of the green pitcher features a smooth, polished pontil scar, confirming its authentic hand-blown production heritage.
