Item Description
Start or add to your American Brilliant Crystal collection with this absolutely stunning cut glass pitcher. Its many intricate geometric patterns will reflect a rainbow of colors and will light up your home.
The period of cut glass known as the American Brilliant Period, 1880-1917, produced the most beautiful cut glass before or since? It was and still is the finest in the world. It was always expensive, and ownership denoted economic and social status. It was popular to set entire tables with it to send light shimmering across the dining room. It is considered “crystal” because it comprised up to a 50% lead content (verses 24% for modern crystal), which accounted for its brilliance.
