Description
Many collectors don't know this, but Libbey was one of the best producers of engraved glass from the period. This pitcher exemplifies the best quality of engraving - with not only a gorgeous satin finish, but also relief and shading which you will not find on most other pieces. Look at the photo of the front of the pitcher and see how the gradient changes from unpolished engraving to almost clear to make the poppy appear all the more life-like. The pitcher was first deeply fluted and then engraved with deep intaglio poppy on top of it. Even the handle is engraved! Signed Libbey on the base.
Condition
Great condition - just a tiny bit of roughness on the edge of the handle and some light base scratches. 7 1/2" tall, 7" wide.
