The Victorian Pattern Glass Pitcher Store

     Victorians must have been strong. Otherwise they could not have lifted some of their heavy glass water pitchers when they were filled with lemonade - or water - or whatever they poured from them. The average Victorian water pitcher is 8" - 9 1/2" tall, excluding the handle. Milk pitchers were closer to 7" tall and they have their own store HERE.   
  There were basically four variations of EAPG water pitchers:
-- Tankard shape such as Fancy Loop.
-- Bulbous shaped early patterns like Barberry. Most, but not all of these had            applied handles.
-- Jugs such as New Jersey and Texas Star.
-- Cylindrical (more or less)- like Actress.

wispy leaves on the sides but in the front is a long-legged bird
with a fish in its beak, standing in 'water' (engraved lines around
the lower part of the engraved section). Spectacular! $445
