Description

Victorian Ox Blood to Vaseline Satin Finished Art Glass Basket!
We will be listing many treasures that are extremely rare over the upcoming weeks from our own collection. This is a fabulously colored art glass basket!  It was produced around 1890-1910.  We believe it was made by Mt. Washington.  It has a clear frosted applied handle.  The bowl is pie crust crimped with a white outer edge.  The bowl begins as a deep ox blood red and fades to a vaseline center.  The entire basket has a satin finish.  Its exterior is cased in white glass.  It has a ground pontil mark.  Add some brilliant color and stunning design to your collection with this magnificent piece.
Size is 8 1/2" wide and 7" tall. There are no chips or cracks. Make room on the Top Shelf for this one!  See photos.
