How do I identify Pairpoint glass?
To identify Pairpoint glass, you can either conduct online research using trusted resources or consult an expert, such as a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. The American glassmaker didn't often mark its pieces. As a result, you'll need to use the characteristics of your type of piece to determine if Pairpoint produced it. One characteristic common among many types of Pairpoint glass wares, such as compotes, wine glasses and wine buckets, is a clear bubble-like feature called a knop. Looking at images of Pairpoint patterns can also help you spot pieces made by the manufacturer. Shop a range of Pairpoint glass on 1stDibs.
