Item Description

Rare and Stunning Mid-Century Modern Pilgrim Art Glass "Gurgle" Decanter

Up for auction is a magnificent, monumental 21-inch vintage Pilgrim Glass hand-blown crackle glass decanter in a vibrant, highly sought-after blue turquoise hue. Featuring a dramatic three-bulb "Gurgle" structural design and a beautifully distinct alligator-skin crackle texture, this massive statement piece commands attention in any mid-century modern collection or interior display.

Authentic Hand-Blown Features

• The Base: Features a prominent, authentic raspberry rough factory pontil mark on the base, proving its artisan, hand-blown production.

• The Stopper: Includes its original, intact, hand-blown flame/teardrop stopper. Per original Pilgrim Glass artisan design, the stopper features a smooth finish to complement and contrast the distinct crackle texture of the multi-gourd bottle body.

Condition Details & Fitment (Please Read)

• Glass Body: Exceptional vintage condition. The vibrant blue glass is clean, bright, and free of cracks or chips. No cloudy water staining or "sick glass" inside the bulbs.

• Stopper Fitment: The original factory-issued vintage plastic fitment sleeve is missing, which is highly common for these pieces. As a result, the stopper sits loosely and wobbles slightly in the neck.

• The Tape: A previous owner applied a layer of tape to the stopper plug to stabilize it. This tape was carefully removed to inspect and photograph the glass underneath—the glass stem is 100% unbroken with no chips or cracks. 

Measurements

• Total Height: Approx. 21" (With Stopper Inserted)

• Style: Mid-Century Modern Art Glass
