During its peak, the Pairpoint Corporation was known by many as being the art glass headquarters of America. The combination of its New Bedford-made glass and metal ware proved to be an instant commercial and artistic success, and this catalog reprint illustrates the superior artistic designs from the company's production. Filled with detailed illustrations, you will see examples of Cockle Shell salt and pepper shakers, Crown Milano cruets, Burmese castor and bowls, decorated eggs, and much more. This reprint is an important documentation of the production of glass and silver ware at a time when the Gilded Age was at its peak. It will be of great interest to historians, and glass collectors will appreciate it for its aid in identifying the outstanding wares.
