- Lot Description
ROSWELL GLEASON & SONS (DORCHESTER, MASSACHUSETTS) THREE-BOTTLE DECANTER SET, (updated 10/8/2024) comprising a trio of cut overlay double-spout glass wine decanters in red, blue, and green, each with punty cuts and Vintage engraved grapevine decoration around body, with flute-cut necks, and matching cut oblong teared stoppers; each bottle fitted with a silver-plated metal or Britannia holder/carrier with scrolled handle and shaped base which fits into a well on the larger central stand, which has three shell-decorated feet and grapevine edge with the central spire/carrying handle having embossed fish, shells, and acanthus leaf decoration. Underside of stand with Gleason's maker's mark which depicts a Native American figure holding a bow and arrow, no other markings located. Mid 19th century. 13 3/4" H bottles (including stoppers), 19 1/4" HOA.
Catalogue Note: After posting the catalog it was brought to our attention that this wine set is not English and is instead a fine example of New England mercantile collaboration. The bottles are attributable to the New England Glass Co., while the silver-plate stand was made (and marked) by Roswell Gleason & Sons, active in Boston from 1851 to 1871. A similar set is located at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where it is noted that the set appears in a known Gleason trade catalogue from 1866. We sincerely thank the glass scholar who brought this to our attention.Condition
Stand excellent with probably later silvering to surface; bottles in good overall condition with some minor internal residue and light to moderate shallow chipping/flaking around mouths and edge cuts of stoppers, and the blue and green examples each with stoppers broken and glued.
- Provenance
From the collection of John B. Craig, former Ambassador to Oman.
