| A rare piece of coloured Hughes Cornflower glass. This is an unusually massive 6-7/8" tall and 3-3/4" diameter handled large stein or tankard, etched with the Hughes Cornflower pattern on an amber colour elegant glass blank, in this case in the Moondrops pattern by New Martinsville Glass (produced c1932-40, also known as pattern 37). It holds a little over 22 ounces when filled to the brim, so it would be a 20 ounce mug or tankard. Hughes purchased elegant glass blanks from a wide variety of glass makers besides New Martinsville, such as Imperial, Heisey, Fostoria, Cambridge and other firms (still being researched), and the Cornflower pattern was hand cut and etched at Hughes Glass of Toronto. There appears to be far less coloured Cornflower glass, as the majority of the glass was produced on clear blanks. Hughes stopped production of this glassware in the late 1980s. In all of our years selling Cornflower glassware we have never seen another piece like this one. It is in excellent original condition with no chips, cracks, losses, damage or repairs. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are secondhand and may have slight signs of gentle use.
