Whiskey glass?

I’ve been drinking my scotch from this in the past couple of years and always staring at it in wonder. Did what I could to Google search but I’ve never seen anything with this kind of molding. Seems unique so I’m wondering when and where and who made it?

 

pressed glass......is that a face at 8 o'clock on the base rim???

 

it's EAPG... and quite a nice scotch glass : )

for me it's in recognizing the motifs... thanks to McCain for her EAPG book based on motifs, and those online references using motif searches. As a retired/used-to-be architect, I 'get' the design details...

 

Fun for whiskey (in moderation!)

Komo.....SURE IS!! Kind of looks like something at 4 o'clock too!! AND maybe something between 12 noon & 1 o'clock!! Wow!!

 

Cool... never noticed that before!

 

Wow! You amaze me. Thanks a million! I can’t believe it.

 

Oh yeah, and what’s EAPG mean?

 

early american pressed glass

 

I have one that is ruby stained, ( a full 8'oz tumbler). That is the second one I know of.

 

@komokwa, these are the two faces I see.........

 

Don’t forget Oliver Hardy!

 

HA!!!! TOO COOL!!!! IN THAT CASE, there's one on the upper/near the top, but I couldn't make it out....about 1:00 o'clock!!!!!

 

I thought EAPG meant Early American Pattern Glass. Because the pieces were always part of a larger pattern of different items; plates, tumblers pitchers, compotes, cream & sugar, etc.

 

You are right, Ola, some "pattern" glass is blown.

 

The "Faces" you see are the result of pieces/flakes of glass remaining in the mold from the previous pressings. Its just lower quality glass, not anything intentional.
