ORIGINAL OSTRICH LOOKING AT THE MOON GOBLET
- 1870's, American
  REPRODUCTION OSTRICH LOOKING AT THE MOON GOBLET
- 1970's, L.G. Wright Glass Company


 


 

 

  • Both Original examples and Reproduction examples can be found in clear glass.

 

  • Reproductions are more brilliant in colour, but have a glossy finish.

 

  • The Moon depicted on the Reproduction, is smaller and less defined. 

 

  • Original examples are very crisp in comparison, and light in weight.

 

  • On the Reproductions, the mouth of the ostrich appears to be open wider, and the specticles are sitting above the face, rather then on the beak, like the Original Goblet.

 

  • We have found examples signed (with L.G. Wright's "w" in a circle signature) and unsigned (believe to be L.G. Wright as well).
