A splendid antique EAPG glass pitcher in the Delaware pattern introduced by the United States Glass Company in 1899. The sculpted raised decoration of leaves and petals are largely decorated with pleasing cherry violet against an opaque pebbled ground. The mouth and base are gilded. This hand blown beauty is worthy of extra consideration as most EAPG is mold blown.UNITED STATES GLASS CO.
