Retriever Platter

This large milk glass platter by an unknown maker is one of my favorites. I've read that the maker might possibly be Atterbury and that it was probably made in the 1890s. I love the dog making its way through the reedy pond to retrieve the hunter's downed duck with the lily pads around the border. Happily, this beautifully designed and executed piece of early Amercian glass is not hard to find.
