Turquoise Blue Glass Pressed Flower Pitcher

This item is a vibrant turquoise blue glass pitcher, likely made of pressed glass, featuring an ornate floral or foliate design in high relief across its body. The pitcher has a substantial and somewhat squat form, tapering slightly towards the base. The handle is integrated seamlessly into the design, appearing to be crafted from the same mold and material, with a textured surface that continues the floral motif. The rim of the pitcher is flared and features a distinct pour spout, characteristic of beverage pitchers. The glass itself is thick and opaque, preventing full visibility of its contents, and exhibits a rich, consistent blue coloration throughout. There are no immediately visible cracks, chips, or significant damage, suggesting it is in good, used condition. The raised patterns give the pitcher a tactile quality and are suggestive of a mid-20th century 'carnival glass' or 'depression glass' aesthetic, though without clearer markings, an exact age is difficult to pinpoint. The base is also thick and stable, providing good support. No maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the provided images. The craftsmanship appears to be robust, indicative of mass production typical of pressed glass, yet with a decorative flair that makes it visually appealing. The pitcher would likely have been used for serving beverages or as a decorative piece.
