Description
This elegant water carafe is a fine example of American Brilliant Period cut glass, dating circa 1880-1920. The piece features intricate geometric patterns, including hobstar, cross-hatching, and fan motifs, characteristic of the period's highly decorative style. A notable feature is the beautifully engraved floral motif on the body, providing a delicate contrast to the bold cutting. The handle is deeply cut with a geometric pattern, and the base exhibits radial cutting. This carafe would have been used for serving water or other beverages and would make a stunning addition to any collection of antique glassware.
