Description
Impressive ABP brilliant cut glass punch bowl with Meriden Silver Plate quadruple plated base. The punch bowl features four large hobstars separated by a large fan cut to the rim. Below the fan is a field of cut hexhobs over a field of cut strawberry diamonds. The base feature ornate dolphin feet. in researching this punch bowl I found a few examples with the Meriden silver plate base & a matching cut glass base. One example attributed it to Dorflinger. While I cannot rule this out, I lean more toward a company closer to Meriden, CT. Possibly Meriden Glass or J D Bergen. The punch bowl measures 14 1/2" in diameter, 7" high, 12" high with base & weighs nearly 14 pounds without the base. Overall it is in very good condition with chips on a couple rim teeth (see photos). There are a few tiny flea bites & some age appropriate wear. It is quite an impressive piece & displays beautifully. This exceptional ABP brilliant cut glass punch bowl with Meriden Silver Plate dolphin footed base will make a unique & stunning addition to your table, home or collection. Thank you for stopping by.
