Description
JEFFERSON GLASS BLUE OPALESCENT IRIS WITH MEANDER JELLY COMPOTE EAPGA beautiful piece of early American made glass in the form of a lovely blue opalescent footed jelly compote.
This is a quality piece of pressed glass made by the Jefferson Glass Company formerly of Steubenville, Ohio and the pattern name is “Iris with Meander”.
This piece has been in my personal collection since 1992.
This pattern, but not the jelly compote, is pictured and described in the book
Encyclopedia of Victorian Colored Pattern Glass Book II Opalescent Glass from A to Z
by William Heacock.
It is a gorgeous piece as you can see from the photos!
This one has beautiful color and a great strike of opalescence.
I do my best to describe all items as accurately as possible and to the best of my ability.

However, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or with requests for additional pictures.
I will get back to you as soon as I am able.
I want your transaction with me to be exactly the way I want mine to be when I am the buyer.

Age and Condition
This piece dates to circa 1905.
Please look closely at the photos as they are an important part of my description of this item.
There are no chips, flea bites, cracks, hairlines or repairs to the glass.
I don’t see any obvious signs of use; it is in wonderful mint original condition.
As is the case with many pieces of pattern glass of this era there are some tiny bubbles and tiny stones in the glass and some straw marks on the surface; all are common by-products from the making of the glass and are not considered any form of damage.
Please keep in mind these photos can be blown up at least 8X-10X times normal, so anything you see will look 8X-10X times larger in the photos than it really is.
Please note: if you see a dark spot in the photos it is from my camera and is not a mark on the piece.
It will be either just to the right of center towards the bottom or slightly above center on the right side of the photo.
