UNION GLASS COMPANY GOLD-FLECKED / VENETIAN-STYLE ART GLASS ARTICLES, LOT OF TWO, each with gold flecking across exterior surface, both with Panel-Optic molding to bodies with the pinch-waisted ruby red example having a serpentine colorless handle, and the other with a reeded light green handle applied to the bulbous opaque white body; both with polished pontil marks to underside. Together with a small colorless urn-form bud vase/toothpick holder with iridized surface (decorated after Maximilian Boudnik's "Pandora Glass" technique, a style which Boudnik originated at Josef Knizek's Antonienhutte Glass Factory at Teplitz). Three pieces total. Various makers. Late 19th/early 20th century. 2 1/4" to 5 3/4" H.
Catalogue Note: Art glass production at the Union Glass Company (Somerville, MA) began when the factory was bought by Massachusetts businessman Julian de Cordova in 1893. Their varied output is well represented in museum collections, especially at the Smithsonian, to whom Cordova donated dozens of objects in 1905 (all can be found under accession number 43908). The Smithsonian gift includes numerous examples of this gold-flecked art glass, which the company called "Venetian Style", which is sensible given its visual similarity to aventurine decoration. Examples can also be found at Corning, including a matching creamer and sugar set (Acc. no. 2008.4.141) and an example of the snake-handled pitcher (Acc. no. 2008.4.114). The company is better known for their later line of iridescent glass, which is typically marked "KEW BLAS".
Excellent condition overall with some shallow chipping/flaking around the rim of iridized vase.
From the estate of Louis St. Aubin.
