Stevens & Williams English Antique Opalescent Stripe Satin Vase Patent Box Pleat
Rare Stevens and Williams Opalescent Stripe Vase with Rare Patented Box Pleat Crimping Vase. This is a very scarce piece! With opalescent in combination with the satin treatment of this hand blown Vase. In the 1880's Stevens & Williams applied for a patent on it's unique style of crimping it named "Box Pleat". So if you see an art glass item with this square crimp the item is Stevens & Williams. These items are getting harder to find! Everything about this vase shows rarities!
No chips or cracks no maker flaws. I do see a faded brown line on the bottom and is visible in the photos showing the smooth finished Pontil. Produced during the Victorian Era in the 1890's. No chips, cracks or scratches on this Rarity!
Top rim is finished with the Patented Stevens & Williams Box Pleat Crimps- a total of 8 on this vase. They are consistent in size & evenly spaced. Opalescent Stripes are wide and the design is perfect with no maker flaws, no inconsistency in the design such as stray bending in the stripes- perfect workmanship! Photos number 4 and 5 show the smooth polished Pontil. The item "Stevens & Williams English Antique Opalescent Stripe Satin Vase Patent Box Pleat" is in sale since Wednesday, December 21, 2016.
