Description:
Elevate your art glass collection with this exceptional, authentic piece of American Victorian history: an 1880s Wheeling Peachblow cabinet vase manufactured by the renowned Hobbs, Brockunier & Co. of Wheeling, West Virginia.
Introduced in 1886 to rival expensive imported art glass, this genuine 19th-century antique features the highly desirable, acid-etched \"satin\" finish. The exterior boasts a mesmerizing, flawless gradient that transitions seamlessly from a rich, deep cherry red at the rim down to a warm custard yellow at the base.
True to authentic Wheeling production, this piece is expertly cased, featuring an opaque white milk-glass interior liner that is cleanly visible at the mouth. The base displays a beautifully execution-typical ground pontil mark, proving its hand-blown craftsmanship. A small patch of vintage collector/estate sticker residue remains on the bottom, untouched to preserve its found condition.
Standing at a classic cabinet height, this vase is a striking standalone accent piece for a mantle, shelf, or curated glass display.
