Mug 1870 - 1890

This clear glass mug, made by Adams and Company between 1870 and 1890, showcases the "bubble" pattern popular in American glassmaking of the late 19th century. The intricate design, created by pressing molds into the glass, adds a subtle texture to the otherwise plain mug. Today, this mug is a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of the time, exemplifying the artistry found in everyday objects. The piece is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
