Northwood's Brilliant Display of Color in Grape Arbor Pitcher

Grape Arbor was a pattern that Harry Northwood used before the carnival glass era. It transitioned into the iridescent treatment from custard glass. Northwood began production of carnival glass in 1908. This pitcher is in amethyst base glass and its colors are stunning!
