Description
Set of 4 Mid-Century Blown Glass Beer Mugs
Tall hand-blown bar glass mugs in grass green. Big and beautiful art glass for the bar. Made by Blenko Art Glass, Pilgrim Art Glass or Bischoff Art Glass in the late 1950’s – early 1970’s.
All have pontil marks on bases. Applied handles are hand-tooled, thick solid glass. All with solid rings of expected bottom wear (tiny scratches on base where it has rubbed with surfaces for years and years, shows age).
3 are in excellent condition, 1 is in good condition with a sliver chip on the lower, inner handle, looks to be a maker’s miss, thin layer of glass missing, but does not effect the intrigity and is very hard to see. Glass has some tiny unintentional bubbles expected with this type of glass.
The “stained glass” texture of the glass, and the handle top style is often attributed to Blenko, but Pilgrim & Bischoff used the same technique during the mid-century years.
Measure approx. 7″ tall on a 3″ base (hand blown glass always has slight variations). Weigh approx. 1.1 lbs each.
