EAPG Help? - ID = US Glass "Delaware" claret jug
« on: March 09, 2025, 12:52:03 AM »
I have what may be early american pattern glass in what reminds me of the cherry and cable pattern of northwood, even though there are no cables or cherries, and there are no markings. it also appears to be free hand blown - i don't see any seams and the base is irregular. i love the pebble surface but not sure what it is actually called.

any ideas on maker or pattern? is it northwood? is c. 1900 the right era?

  Delaware pattern. https://www.eapgs.net/pattern-details.php?idx=293 always a good place to start. According to Bill Jenks, Jerry Luna book " EARLY AMERICAN PATTERN GLASS 1850-1910" 1990, made in clear, green,amethyst and three different opaque whites as to color of glass. The other colors you see in the link are stains and other decorations.
