This is an Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG) clear glass 56 oz pitcher in the Dart and Convex Band (also known as Web Handle) pattern. The maker is unknown. It was produced circa 1870's. The pitcher stands about 7 3/8th inch tall (at the tip of the spout), about 4 7/8th inches across the top, and about 5 3/8th inches across the bottom. There are no chips, cracks or repairs hat I can find. The glass is clear and healthy with no clouding fogging of the glass. There are some straw marks and air bubbles in the glass. These are common in pieces made in this era. There are a lot of air bubbles in the handle as shown in the 7th and 8th photo. I also noticed a bubble at the top of the handle as shown in 6th photo. The bottom is scuffed from being slide on the resting surface which attest for its age. This piece is heavy at 3 pounds 10 oz before packing. The pattern is simple and complete. This piece looks as if it was lightly used or used for display only. I'm in the process of downsizing my collection of items from stores I had across the midwestern states over the years and family. I've had most of these pieces packed away for years. As I unpack a box, I'll be listing the contents. The photos and additional details below are part of the item description. If you need any additional photos or have any questions please feel free to contact me. Thanks for looking at my listing.

Please do not pay until I have invoiced you. The shipping calculator makes mistakes that will overcharge you sometimes. I will refund any cost over the actual postage, if it is over $1.50. I will never charge you additional postage for an item if the calculator makes a mistake in your favor.
