Description
An exquisite example of American Brilliant Period cut glass, this flared trumpet vase dazzles with its intricate geometric patterns and exceptional clarity. Likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century (circa 1890–1915), the vase features a striking combination of hobstars, fans, cross-hatching, and deep miters, all meticulously hand-cut into heavy, high-lead crystal. The starburst motif at the base and the scalloped rim add to its ornate silhouette, while the elongated form gives it a graceful vertical presence.
The craftsmanship reflects the height of the American cut glass industry, when companies such as Libbey, Hawkes, and J. Hoare were producing deeply faceted crystal works of art prized for both beauty and technical mastery. Though unsigned, this piece carries all the hallmarks of that era's exceptional workmanship: brilliant light refraction, sharply defined motifs, and balanced composition.
