Tiffin-Franciscan Moon & Stars EAPG Punch Bowl Set With15 Cups - Cut Glass

Step back in time with this enchanting Tiffin-Franciscan Moon & Stars Punch Bowl Set, a perfect example of Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG). This exquisite set is in near flawless condition, boasting an absence of chips or cracks and minimal, if any, scratching on the cups and bowl, making it a remarkable find for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The punch bowl, measuring 10 inches wide and 6.5 inches tall, captivates with its detailed craftsmanship. It features a footed base of 5.25 inches wide with a beautifully cut glass starburst pattern at the bottom, adding a touch of radiance to its design. The bowl’s unique cupped shape is accentuated by 12 scalloped edges, each adorned with a cut glass circle. Alternating between simple circles and circles with a star cut into the center, this design creates a harmonious balance of six stars and six moons, adding to the celestial theme of the set. The soft ruffled points and ridges along the top edge give the bowl a crown-like or wave-like appearance, enhancing its visual appeal. Complementing the punch bowl are 15 cups, each 3 inches in diameter at the top and approximately 2.5 inches tall. These cups echo the moon and stars motif of the bowl, featuring a sun or starburst cut into the bottom and nine scalloped edges. The alternation of moon and star designs midway up each scalloped edge ties the entire set together in thematic harmony.
