    I’ve started buying nice pieces of glass when I find it cheap, to research it. Any recommendations for on resources for this sort of thing?

    Hi Ratsy, this is a beautiful pitcher! Looks old, maybe 1910-29ish?
    That is just my guess.
    I hope @TallCakes will be able to better date it.

    sorry, I don't quite know nor recognize the motif vocabulary for cut glass. For pressed glass this motif would be close to English Hobnail, but for cut glass I think it may be a strawberry or maybe checkered diamond motif. The 'House of Brilliant Glass' has a nice guide to cut glass; scroll down to section 4 motifs:
    Table of Contents – The House of Brilliant Glass
    or direct link to the diamond motif:
    Diamonds – The House of Brilliant Glass

    hope this helps a bit...

    The pattern is strawberry diamond. There's a cut glass group on FB that may be able to help ID your pitcher.
