Water Pitcher

New England Glass Company

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Water Pitcher by New England Glass Company. The pitcher has a rounded body with a bulbous base. The lower body is clear glass, transitioning to dark at the top. The handle is attached on the right side, curving backward and to the right. The handle's end is not attached to the body; it sticks out. The opening of the pitcher has a wavy rim. The pitcher sits on a flat surface with a shadow behind it, against a light-gray background.
