I am offering for auction a rare Cut Glass item.
THIS UNUSUAL PIECE IS MOST LIKELY A WHISKEY TUMBLER.
It was decorated with Copper Wheel Engraving.
IT IS A CLASSIC ART DECO PIECE.
This amazing work of art is in excellent condition.
It was polished with a wood wheel.
This is one gem that really does not need any description. Photos speak for themselves.
IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO PHOTOGRAPH.
It dates circa 1915.
The condition shows that it has obviously been cherished all these years.
Blank is a beautiful crystal clear.
THIS STUNNING GLASS HAS THE MASTER QUALITY OF DORFLINGER. I WOULD ATTRIBUTE THIS PIECE TO THEM. DORFLINGER WAS LOCATED IN PENNSYLVANIA. THEY WERE ONE OF THE TOP GLASS HOUSES OF THEIR TIME.
DORFLINGER REFERRED TO THIS AS "ROCK CRYSTAL".
IT WAS EXTREMELY TIME CONSUMING AND VERY EXPENSIVE TO PRODUCE.
It measures 3 11/16" tall and 2 11/16" wide.
The base is cut into a 24 point star.
This glass is one of nine. The others will be listed shortly.
Don't let this price fool you. We have been collecting Cut Glass for 35+ years. It is now time to liquidate some of our stock but we don't seem to be getting anywhere. We literally have 100's of pieces.
THIS IS A MUST FOR ANYONE WHO LOVES COLLECTING CUT GLASS AS MUCH AS WE DO.
Please check the photos carefully and ask all your questions before bidding. I don't want you to end up in a situation where you feel like you got something different from what you thought. I will gladly answer as many questions as you need to ask to feel comfortable and also send you additional photos if that is necessary. You should always bid with confidence. My aim is that you are satisfied with your purchase. Call if necessary. 1-203-260-2315.
I guarantee all items I sell are as described, and note all damage and major flaws. However with antiques, some wear is to be expected, and especially with old glass, there sometimes may be small bubbles, light wear or signs of age and use, or slight irregularities, which is common with hand made glass. I do not use the word "Mint" to describe anything. If any item is not as described, I will refund 100% of the purchase price. This does not include shipping costs.
WE WILL ALWAYS CONSIDER COMBINING SHIPPING WHEN IT WOULD BE SAFE TO DO SO. OUR PRIORITY IS THAT ALL ITEMS ARRIVE AT YOUR HOME IN PERFECT CONDITION. SOME ITEMS ARE TOO HEAVY TO COMBINE. WE WORK VERY HARD TO SAVE YOU MONEY ON SHIPPING.
