Early American Decanters

2 жыл бұрынThis video is a follow up discussion and demonstration of early American decanters. I don't have many and I am kind of asking of for advice on the decanters I do have.
The books I show in this video are:
The Decanter, Ancient to Modern, authored by Andy McConnell

I think Andy's Decanter book is certainly helpful

The older The Decanter book is good too.

Awesome little video. In my own way, I also collect decanters. sadly I cannot post pictures, but I must have 100-150 of all sorts. I love finding them out in the wild. here is New England, you can come across a lot of old American glass, like Sandwich.

Do you recognise who might of made these decanters, or even what area they came from. I’m not sure how many decanters I have, but it’s hundreds. My problem is that I’m a cheap skate and can’t dodge a bargain.

@@lovedecanters7891 Not really, maybe Sandwich ? or perhaps Pittsburgh, on the success one. The Flint glass Facebook group has some real knowledgeable people. I really just collect for the romance of the past, thingy. I kind of have a thing for early 19th cent. Bar Lip decanters, you might call them carafes.

I personally think the success to Congress one was made in England possibly decorated here in the US

I don’t have enough early US glass pass through my hands to say it isn’t US, but without the inscription I would think it’s English.

@@lovedecanters7891 well in my experience collecting glass and to the best of my knowledge. We in the US were pretty late to the glass making game. And most of our 18th and early 19th century glass was imported

The first decanter has the wrong stopper, the stopper is three mold and would of gone to a decanter that would have the same pattern!

Now you’ve said it i think someone told me about five years ago. I paid $5 plus $15 postage, so I can’t moan too much about the wrong stopper.
