DescriptionGoblet of colorless pressed glass. Cord and Tassel pattern patented by Andrew Baggs of Wheeling on July 23, 1872. This pattern is illustrated in a Central catalogue, but as the designer was associated with the LaBelle Glass Co. of Bridgeport, OH in 1872 Peterson believes the pattern was made there as well.
