Black glass milk jug I/D ?
« on: April 08, 2020, 08:13:02 PM »
What a great design on this pressed Black glass milk jug with no identifying marks.
5 inches tall x 3.5 inches wide including handle.
Many thanks
Malcolm

Looking for something similar I found there are quite a few similar creamers online made by George Davidson, try Glass Queries Gallery for starters.

good shout Nev. - I've been through all fifty pix but couldn't find an exact match ……………….   I hadn't realized the factory had made so many milk jugs/creamers.
Brilliant work by Fred though.

It won't necessarily help, but if Malcolm could provide another picture  - side on - with better contrast of the moulded pattern  - the pix we have are too dark I think.

Thanks Paul, I must admit I gave up on GQG after about page 30!

Not a registered Davidson design, and not seemingly a match to any of the creamers shown in Davidson catalogues of unregistered designs 1880-1890.

Thanks so much it’s a change not to get a manufacturer from you knowledgeable people lol.
It will go in the  collection with a question mark sticker.
Thank you all again.
Malcolm
