For many decades antique cut-glass dishes, bowls, and vases have added glistening sparkle to holiday tables. Cut glass was popular from about 1880 to 1920, a time known for distinctive deeply cut crystal or "brilliant period" cut glass. At the end of the 19th century, the glass became known as "rich-cut, " which gave an air of prestige to every piece. Fine glass companies produced abundant glassware--from punch bowls to salt cellars. Punch bowls were the most expensive because of costs involved in production. Several strong hands held bowls to a cutting wheel while a cutter expertly and precisely guided each swipe of the blade. The slightest slip could ruin weeks of work. 100% GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC - WE WILL NEVER SELL FAKES. WITH ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS.Get Images that Make Supersized Seem Small.
