This "Water Pitcher" is a stunning example of American glassblowing from the late 19th century, crafted by the Mount Washington Glass Company between 1885 and 1890. The pitcher features a captivating ombre effect, transitioning from a deep amber hue at the top to a clear, almost colorless base. The glass is further enhanced by an uneven, textured surface that adds a unique tactile dimension to the piece. Today, the pitcher is a part of the esteemed collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
