Pitkin & Brooks (1872-1920) was located in Chicago, and grew to become the largest distributor of glassware in the Midwest.

 

American Brilliant Cut Glass is handcrafted, high quality leaded crystal.  The glass is deep and sharp and due to the high lead content (over 50%), it reflects light beautifully.  This showcase time for American glassmakers extended from 1876 until 1920.
