Special Comments:

Smith Brothers was a decorating firm that initially decorated blanks (undecorated pieces) for Mt.Washington/Pairpoint. After a few years they started their own shop and purchases Blanks to decorate and resale. Smith Brothers was not a glass manufacturer, so the same decorations can be found on pieces from multiple manufacturers. The shape of this shaker is the same as the “Coral/Peachblow” shaker pictured in the catalog cut.
