Intaglio Wheel-Cut Daisy & Floral Motif (Circa 1900) Enhance your collection with this exquisite American Brilliant Period (ABP) cut glass water pitcher, originating from the turn of the 20th century. This stunning piece highlights the highly collectible "Gravic" or realistic phase of American glassmaking, transitioning from rigid geometric patterns to beautifully fluid, botanical designs.
The pitcher features masterfully executed copper-wheel intaglio cuts, showcasing frosted, multi-dimensional daisy blossoms, flowing stems, and deeply carved leaves. The matte texture of the floral motifs creates a striking, elegant contrast against the highly polished and reflective lead crystal body.
True to the craftsmanship of the period, the pitcher boasts a substantial weight, exceptional clarity, and a resonant, bell-like ring when gently tapped. The design is finished with a notched handle and a polished, stepped rim. This heirloom-quality pitcher serves as a spectacular centerpiece or a functional serving piece for elegant gatherings. Excellent antique condition with no chips, cracks, or cloudiness.
