Antique Bellaire Goblet Co 101 EAPG Queen's Necklace Spooner Celery Glass 1889
Antique Bellaire Goblet Co. No. 101 “Queen’s Necklace” EAPG spooner, a pattern dating to 1889. Standing approximately 4.25 inches tall, this clear pressed-glass piece features a scalloped rim, bold oval panels, and flowing teardrop details that catch and reflect the light. Glows yellow-green under 365nm UV light, as shown in the photos.
On a Victorian table, a spooner held spoons upright within easy reach during meals and tea. Often part of a coordinated set with a creamer, sugar bowl, and butter dish, it kept everyday utensils attractively displayed.
This piece could also serve as a small celery glass, although its original intended function has not been confirmed. Celery glasses brought both practicality and decoration to the nineteenth-century table: stalks stood upright in cold water to keep them crisp, with leafy tops arranged almost like a bouquet. Celery was once a fashionable luxury, making its presentation part of an elaborate dining display.
A decorative example of Victorian table glass for an antique collection or mirrored cabinet display. Please review the original photographs for condition and surface details. One piece included; display accessories are not included.
