Tumbler 1887 - 1896

"Tumbler," a clear glass tumbler, was produced by Hobbs, Brockunier and Company in the late 19th century. The piece is made of opalescent glass, known for its iridescent quality, and features a textured surface of evenly distributed raised bumps. This decorative technique, known as "blown glass" or "pressed glass," was popular during the Victorian era and showcased the skill and artistry of glassblowers. The "Tumbler" is currently part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City.
