Briard’s success and notoriety came with the use of 22-karat gold as screened decoration for bent glassware. His design hallmarks are repetitive patterns, most often featuring geometric shapes or nature based images. Georges Briard is known for creating some of the most stunning Mid Century Modern glassware as well as Atomic and Kitsch designs in the later 1970s and is the essence of MCM glassware excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaker\/Era: Georges Briard, Mid Century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHallmarks: Beyond the graphics, this pitcher does not bare a signature\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements: The pitcher measures 9 1\/4\" tall; the glass stirring wand measures just shy of 10\" in length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall condition: Very, very good vintage condition.
