Interpretive Notes
These pieces were wedding presents to Andrew Durkin and Mary Gallagher, who were married in Corning on November 23, 1909. The water set was from Mr. Durkin's colleagues on the Steuben County Board of Supervisors, and the occasion on which it was presented was written up in the Corning newspaper. The set is cut in the "Panel" pattern, which was patented by Hawkes in 1909. It was thus the latest fashion when it was purchased. The pattern of the bowl has not been identified, but it, too, bears the Hawkes trademark.
Physical DescriptionTumbler cut in "Panel" Pattern. Colorless lead glass; blown, cut, polished. Cylindrical tumblers; heavily cut in a pattern of vertical chains of hobstars alternating with vertical grooves; hobstar cut on base. Acid-stamped "HAWKES" on base.
