Celery vase — Bakewell, Page & Bakewell|Bakewell, Page & Bakewells

The cut decoration on this vase and on the nearby decanter and compote is a variation on the strawberry diamond-and-fan pattern, the most popular cut-glass pattern in the United States in the early nineteenth century. All of these pieces emulate the richly cut tableware of the Anglo-Irish tradition.
