Loetz Cameo Glass Bowl Carved Overlay Signed
Loetz Art Glass Bowl signed Richards. Exceptionally fine art glass bowl incased glass with exterior carved leaves and flowers. This bowl has an unusual color combination of yellow, navy blue and touches of green in the leaves. Loetz made glass for various foreign companies according to their demands. Richard was one of the names appearing on Loetz cameo designs. I was able to find this information along with the same pattern as this bowl on page 26 of Collectible Bohemian Glass Volume II 1915-1945. Carved in signature on the end and in spectacular condition - I really can not find anything wrong with the bowl. It is a nice unusual large oval shape – measuring 7 ¾" oval x 4 ½"w x 2 7/8"h.

Antique Blown Clear Glass Pitcher Birds
Wonderful early glass item from the 19th century – I am 99% sure that it is New England Glass. This pitcher is blown mold glass in a very nice pattern. The glass is quite heavy and substantial and the decoration is of lovely birds. On one side of the pitcher you see the mother and father bird intently gazing at a nest full of eggs and on the others side of the pitcher they are intently gazing again only this time looking extremely excited and happy at the little tiny heads of the birds in the nest. It is positively wonderful – I love this pitcher. As I sit here and do this description I actually have Goosebumps from the sheer beauty of the subject. It is in very very good condition – not a chip or flake anywhere. It measures 7 ½"h with a base diameter 3 ¾".

Cruet Stand 18th Century Antique Silver Glass
Very early silver and glass cruet stand. This is an extravagant 18th century classical designed cruet stand in sterling silver with hallmark. It has a superb intricate pattern supported by a full base on four ball feet. The silver quality is excellent. The glass cruets are free blown and cut on the neck in a honeycomb pattern as well as the stoppers. The handles are also blown and applied. Overall the piece is in excellent condition and it has substantial weight. It has one maker’s punch that I can clearly make out which appears to be the head of Mercury. To the best of my knowledge that is a typical 18th century French hallmark. It has a few other hallmarks that are very very hard to make out. Never the less it is of superb quality and a rare table item. The stand itself measures 11 ¼" at highest x 8 7/8" at widest x 4 5/8" at deepest and the cruet is 8 7/8" high.

Antique Sterling Silver Glass Cruets Stand Early
Here is one outstanding and rare cruets stand - all in sterling silver with blown and cut glass cruets. It is totally outrageous in design. The cruet stand starts out on a base supported by four paw feet with a lion’s head above each paw. The central stem is made up of a portrait bust of what I would call Lady Liberty and on top of her head there is a basket of fruit which forms the handle. Around the cruet holder you have three female portrait busts. It is hugely decorated with so much immense fine detail that it is hard to notice and point out every little fine point. The cruets as I mentioned are blown and cut glass and the stoppers are very unique where as when you turn the stopper side ways or look in the stopper from above you see a free blown tear drop in the interior – it is very nice. As far as the condition of the cruets both have a bit of cloudiness (sick) at the very very bottom but it is fairly faint. There is a heat or firing crack that is about 1/8" long in the neck of one of the cruets. The glass is colorless and spectacular. The cruet stand itself is a little bit soft but none the less very sturdy having substantial weight. The punch mark is that of a head of hypocrites and that is a golden silver standard for the very early 1800’s. Overall a fine, rare and unusual table item! The stand itself measures 8 ½" at widest x 12 ¾" at highest x 5 3/8" at deepest and the cruet is 9 ¼" high.

Wine Decanters Cut Glass Pair
Here's a really nice matching pair of cut glass decanters - circa 1860 -1870's. They are the early cut style as you can see by the very long necks. The quality is very good and the cutting almost appears to look carved. Even though these are a matching pair there is a slight difference in height as you might notice - it is because they are hand made but 100% made by the same hand! Condition overall is very good having a slight bit of cloudiness at the bottom of one & one flake off the top of the lip on the other. They are also unusually high being 12 ¾" tall including stopper with a 3 ¾" base diameter. Overall they are very impressive - having good crystal, clarity & design!

Antique Irish Cut Glass Flint Compote
Absolutely wonderful Irish compote dating from the very early 19th century – approx 1820. It has a gorgeous, cut scalloped flowing top edge with a paneled center. It has that spectacular wonderful colorless Irish glass. It is flint and when you tap it - it rings like a bell. It is in relatively perfect condition – and I say relative because it is very very hard to find an Irish piece of glass that is totally perfect. This one has just a few little rough flea bites along the top scalloped edge the largest one being the size of a little finger nail underneath the edge and there are two of those. There are approx two or three little flea bite sections. Other then that – free flowing, elegant, superior lines, and quiet a rare find these days! It measures 9" at highest with an overall diameter of 7 ½".

Antique Blown Engraved Glass Pitcher Webb Birds
Here is an outstanding free blown and engraved glass pitcher signed in an acid stamp on the bottom - T Webb. The Free blown pitcher has a delicate ruffled top and one very incredible applied blown handle, which is very Venetian in style. The exceptionally fine engraving is of a marsh with a long legged bird - possibly an egret - standing in the marsh. On the other side there is a very simple engraved cattail wildflower. The condition is quite excellent having only a few minor blips from the blowing and annealing process - like a bubble here and there. Anyone who knows glass will understand that these little blips are quite common. Blown pontil. It dates from the 1890’s to early 1900's. It measures 9" high with a 5" diameter opening of the top and a 3 3/8" diameter of the base.

Include in this set are nine fluted matching cordial glasses, measuring 2 ½"h, with the cranberry tops and gold enamel edges. The stylish decanters appear to be free blown and that is the reason that one decanter is slightly taller than the other. The decanters measure 9 ½"h. This is a lovely and elegant set to actual use to serve after dinner drinks or for display in the Curio Cabinet.

Cut Glass Engraved Decanter Canary Yellow Antique
Gleaming just like a canary yellow diamond! Its not often one finds this particular color of cut glass. This decanter is canary cut glass with a deeply engraved coat of arms having a knight’s head in the center. The cutting starts at the base in almost a sunburst design it is very deeply cut. The neck of the decanter is silver and it is marked sterling. It has a mushroom stopper. I think this decanter is so incredibly sophisticated – not to long ago I was flipping through glass reference books and actually came across the almost identical work but now I can’t remember what book I saw it in. I highly suspect that this type of glass is called uranium glass – it is American or European. This piece dates from the 19th century. The quality & cutting of the class is superior. I can’t believe that there is no signature on this masterpiece! Measuring 12" high with a 3" diameter (of the base). This would be a perfect wedding gift. The condition is excellent.
