Mold blown, with a pontil on the bottom where the gather was broken off of the punty rod, applied handle, hand shaped rim...
Don't know the era....but it's a lovely hand made piece of glass.

When I looked similar pitchers on eBay they were all referred to as "Victorian" -- of course, what do eBay sellers know? LOL! It is a pretty pitcher and tea looks lovely in it!

It's called romancing the goods!
From the decoration, I would say it's more likely 1930's than Victorian....but 1930's pitchers didn't often have a hand shaped rim. It could even be more modern....or something like Fenton.

I see a spode greek plate !!! I have been collecting that pattern for years. The reissued 1980s I use has everyday plates. Old stays in china cabinet. Really like your pitcher !!

I have a lot of Spode Blue Room (which the Greek Key is part of) including their HUGE turkey platter -- bought at an outlet for $50 around 2002! It's one of my prize platters!

That platter on ebay now for almost $300. I love it

They dropped the price was 1st list at $300 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Magnificent-Spode-Signature-Collection-Platter-22-5-Made-England-Greek-Roman-/272767160124?hash=item3f82308f3c:g:ZgAAAOSwImRYhVZt

ny boy -- not a bad buy for $50! BIG GRIN!

The pitcher is very pretty. It has a fenton-ish look to it.

Wouldn't a truly Victorian pitcher have that little nub on the tip of the handle where your thumb sits to make the pitcher balance and pour easily? Even if hand-formed?

cathy, I've never heard of that before.

viola -- no matching glasses but I'll keep my eye out -- who knows I may find some!

I remember reading pitchers did not have ice lips till home freezers became common do not remember date. Yours doesn't have ice lip

Based on your Christmas photo you have a great eye with good taste.

Just bought this today http://www.ebay.com/itm/332334244824?ul_noapp=true

Martha - your home is lovely.

ny boy -- that is a great piece. Do you collect other colors . . . I don't believe I've ever seen red before although I have seen black.

Yes Blue, Red, Brown, and Black there is also Brown with Green. Blue is the most collected.

Yes, the blue in any pattern seems to be the most popular. What a nice collection you must have. Pictures?

Next time I am at my country house will take photos,

Wow -- I didn't know any of this -- I found it quite interesting. Thank you for sharing!

I'm jealous! LOVELY collection!

Me too! Jealous that is.

Spode reissued Greek in 1980 clearly marked dishwasher safe I use for everyday. Antique Greek says in cabinet.

I have a couple (three, four or five) pieces of the 1980 Greek including the HUGE turkey platter. All in blue.

I don't see that....nope....not looking....English transferware you say?? nope...not me....
Comes in pink and blue and brown? Like masons?
nope....don't hear you...
Not going to look on ebay....nope...not going to do it!
nyboy? Are you married?? would that cupboard full come under joint custody?

Yes, Linda, Ny boy's old is absolutely stunning . . . 1980s not so much

LOL single that's why I have money to spend on collecting.
