ITEM 6870. EAGLE - CORNUCOPIA,
(McK# GII-6), greenish aquamarine, pontil scar, pint, sheared
and fire polished mouth, a mint flask exhibiting some minor wear
at the high points. Blown at a Pittsburgh District Glass House,
C. 1825, rare.
Although catalogued as "scarce" by McKearin it has
been our experience that the GII-6 is in fact a rare flask and
this is one of just a few examples we have had the pleasure of
offering. As with every other GII-6 that we have encountered,
the flask has an overall pebbly texture but it retains good overall
mold clarity.
