This is the history of Gillinder & Sons from the Glass Lovers Database – “Gillinder and Sons, Philadelphia, Pa. Established in 1861. Moved to Greensburg, Pa. in 1888. Joined US Glass as Factory G in 1891. Gillinder is still in business today.” According to Replacements this pattern was discontinued in 1877.
The lid is frosted as is the band at the bottom of the jar.
I’ve been wanting to buy a lion for some time but they are more expensive than I was willing to pay. Saw this one. It has a few small chips on the edge of the lid. I can live with these for display purposes.
This is a very attractive piece for a couple of Leos!
I just bought a trinket dish shaped like a glass container to hold q-tips. It has the frosted glass lion’s head on the top of the lid. All around the bottom is a 3-D frosted glass decoration with more lions. I was wondering if you know of this one and what you think. I want to sell it of course.
Thanks,
Judy
