Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE VINTAGE CAMBRIDGE GLASS CLEAR # 3121 STEM 1 OZ. CORDIAL ACHILLES CUTTINGFor the cordial collector, we have an elegant glass cordial made by the Cambridge Glass Company formerly of Cambridge, Ohio. The stem is from their # 3121 stemware line and is the 1-ounce cordial. It is made with a clear colored glass (Cambridge Glass called this color “Crystal”) and it has a wide optic pattern in the bowl and is decorated with the “Achilles” cutting pattern. The 1985 book Cambridge Stemware by Mark Nye pictures and describes this stemware line on pages 91 & 92. The author writes that this stemware line was produced from 1931 to 1958. This piece has been in my personal collection since 1983. This is a high quality piece of hand-made glass with a blown bowl, a pressed stem, and a cast foot that were then attached together while hot. Please be sure to read the “AGE AND CONDITION” and “APPROXIMATE SIZE” paragraphs below. There is one of these same stems, in this same color, with “Elaine” etching, pictured on page 87 in the 1997 book Stemware Identification: Featuring Cordials with Values 1920s – 1960s by Gene Florence.The “Achilles” cutting, on this same stem, is pictured on pages 133-135 (page # at the top of the page) of the 1949-1953 Cambridge Catalog Reprint Book The Cambridge Glass Co. by The National Cambridge Collectors, Inc.
