Large American Brilliant Cut Glass Pedestal Compote By Hawkes – Delft Diamond Pattern c 1930’s

American Brilliant Cut Glass Pedestal Compote By Hawkes

This outstanding American compote is by the Hawkes company out of Corning, New York. The compote is a fine example of the heavily cut delft diamond pattern featuring a deep cut geometric diamond pattern on the exterior of the bowl, a scalloped rim and a flower shape base.  This is referred to as American “Brilliant” cut glass. It dates circa 1930’s.

Measures:  9 1/4 inches wide x 9 5/8 inches high.

Marked:  Acid etched tri-lobed mark with a hawk in two bottom lobes and a fleur-de-lis in the centre lobe, Hawkes etched below mark added after 1920. I have put a white sticker on the base to help find the mark (pictures x 2).

Excellent Condition: No cracks or repairs. Tiny flea bites along interior rim.
