Pairpoint Manufacturing Co. history began in New Bedford, MA, in 1880, making silver mounts for the nearby Mt. Washington Glass Company; they merged in 1894, forming Pairpoint Corporation in 1900, known for its luxury art glass, "puffy" lamps, and cut glass, competing with Tiffany, but production declined after the Depression, leading to reorganizations, though the name survives today for handmade glass.
Measures approximately 1.75 inches tall by 2.6 inches long and 2.6 inches wide.
In good condition with no noticeable flaws. Shows some signs of patina/tarnish, but can most likely be polished if you desire. Please see all photos.
