Going a bit out on the limb to guess this might be "Early American Pattern Glass"? (based on other things I've seen here, anyway?) Corrections WELCOMED if I'm wrong!! :-)
This elegant little cruet measures a little over 8" tall with its stopper. Though difficult to photograph, it features a pattern (etched? molded?? I dunno??) on 4 of its 6 sides (the ones without the handle attached betwixt them, that is) of 3 horizontal bands (themselves comprised of 4 tiny lines each) below which appears a vertical sort of '3 cherries hanging from a slender stem with 2 slender leaves' design. Its bottom profile is round and protrudes about 3/16" inch, so the lowest part of the hexagonal shape appears to 'float' slightly above the tabletop it might sit upon. Its handle is also roughly hexagonal in cross-section profile, with 4 'wider' sides and 2 'narrower' ones. Pretty shape to its spout/stopper, too?!! :-)
No maker's marks on it at all that I can see...but I bet somebody here can probably tell me more about it anyway...?? ;-) ;-)
Thanks in advance for y'all's thoughts!! :-)
one online EAPG reference has this as McKee Bros. #19 but no known date
considered part of McKee's PRESCUT Colonial line
