All are the "tomato" shakers and all are in good condition, each measures 2 tall. Weight 1 pd 6 oz. PROVENANCE: A Private Charleston SC Estate. The Mount Washington Glass Works was founded 1837 in South Boston by Deming Jarves & Edmund Monroe. They maintained a close relationship with Boston & Sandwich Glass until about 1860. Timothy Howe & Wm. Libbey took over Mt. Washington in 1863, and William L. Libbey moved the firm to New Bedford in 1870. A reorganization of the company in 1874 brought Frederick S. Shirley to the firm as the new manager; and, under him, many new types of glass were developed and patented including: Burmese, Peachblow, Lava, Rose Amber, Royal Flemish, and Lusterless Satin glass. Many types of art glass were made by Mt. Washington until 1894, when the company merged with Pairpoint Manufacturing Co.
