Hot Vintage Crystal Pitcher, Hand Painted Grapes, Footed, 22kt Gold, Romania

Pattern: Bordeaux (*)
 Made in Romania by Crystal Clear Industries
Vintage: 1970's - 1980's
Details:   This is a beautiful crystal pitcher, hand painted and etched, a true work of art!   There are so many details that makes this a beautiful piece.  Starting with the cut glass grape bunches that are not only cut into the glass but then colored by hand in a red-wine/purple tone.  The leaves have two tones of green, softer green on the inside and dark green on the veins. It is all bordered hot in 22kt gold with gold tendrils added for further enhancement.  The top border and foot are also rimmed in gold.  This is a footed pitcher with a large handle and the spout has been narrowed to act as an ice-lip.  (*)We are calling this the "Bordeaux" pattern but we noticed, Bordeaux by Crystal Clear Industries has different coloring on the leaves.  This is piece is definitely by Crystal Clear Industries, just the pattern name might be different.  This piece came with a round sticker that read: "Made in Romania, Crystal Clear Industries, Hand Crafted Crystal", unfortunately this one no longer has its sticker.  We have seen these for sale for over $100 dollars plus shipping costs.  Gorgeous on a buffet table.  Would look very nice with Sangria, could even be used as a decanter.
