Glass jug with air bubbles
« on: May 11, 2019, 12:04:57 PM »
Hi,this jug is a recent find and I'm guessing influenced by Dresser??it's about 6.5" high with good wear to the base and a broken Pontil,there are loads of air bubbles of varying sizes and the handle is hollow,any thoughts? Many thanks.

Thanks,have you seen one?it has a lot of wear,but I know that isn't a sure indicator of age ,For many reasons it isn't Dresser but I'm sure designers look for influences from many sources and I can see some similarities.

I wouldn't say it was Murano, or that it was old
