This is an early 20th century, cut glass preserve pot and cover dating from the beginning of the 20th century, c1920.

The pot is in excellent condition for its age. It shows age related wear and tear consistent with some 100 years of use.

The pot is approximately cup-shaped and measures 9 cm (3.6 inches) in diameter at its widest point. The bowl is cut with large strawberry diamonds. The base is radially cut to the underside The pot is 7 cm (2.8 inches) in height without the cover and 12.5 cm (5 inches) in height with the cover on.

There is some minor fritting to the rim of the cover where it touches the bowl. There are no significant chips, cracks, significant scratches or any other evidence of restoration. A pretty piece of cut glass in excellent condition.

This Edwardian preserve pot and cover from 1910 is made of clear cut lead crystal. The cup-shaped bowl is decorated with a large strawberry diamond pattern, while the base has a radial cut to the underside. The fitted cover mirrors the bowl's decoration, featuring a facet-cut ball finial and a small aperture on the rim for a spoon. The item measures 12.5 cm high, 9 cm wide, and 9 cm deep. In a home today, this piece works well on a sideboard top in a dining room or living area as a decorative container. The glass displays age-related wear including minor fritting to the cover rim where it meets the bowl, consistent with use over a century.

FAQs

A preserve pot is a specialized table container designed during the early twentieth century to serve jams, marmalades, and honey during breakfast or afternoon tea services.

These pots were typically made from heavy lead crystal glass, hand-cut using stone wheels to create geometric patterns such as strawberry diamond and cross-cut designs.

Authentic pieces exhibit precise hand-cut edges, heavy weight due to high lead content, clear light refraction, and often feature a designated notch in the rim to accommodate a serving spoon.

Place the pot on a sideboard, dining table, or open kitchen shelving as a functional vessel for condiments, or display it on a dressing table to store small accessories.

Hand wash the glass in warm water using a mild liquid detergent and a soft cloth, avoiding automatic dishwashers and sudden temperature changes that could cause thermal shock.
