By this time, pressed tablewares were being produced in large matching sets and innumerable forms. During the mid-1850s, colorless glass and simple geometric patterns dominated. Catering to the demand for moderately-priced dining wares, the glass industry in the United States expanded widely, and numerous factories supplied less expensive pressed glassware to the growing market. At the Exhibition of the Industry of All Nations at New York's Crystal Palace in 1853, for example, the New England Glass Company exhibited 130 pieces of one design, "consisting of bowls, tumblers, champagnes, wines, and jelly glasses." This object belongs to one such service. Although the glass manufactory is not known, the glassware is very typical of the large services that were very popular with America's mTeapot with cover.

Maker: Benjamin Burt, 1729-1805Coconut tankard early 17th century Andreas Fleischer Vessels such as this one embody the late Renaissance taste for uniting exotic natural materials with artistic craftsmanship. Coconut shells, treasured since ancient times, were thought to have miraculous powers, including the ability to neutralize poisoned wine. With the fibrous husk removed, the shell could be polished and mounted as a lavish drinking vessel. The sculptural handle is derived from a model used around 1600 by goldsmiths in Augsburg, Regensburg, Cologne, and elsewhere. These models were acquired as lead casts by journeymen during the travels they were obliged to make before becoming a guild master.LiteratureFine European Silver.
