Findlay Onyx Glass pitcher made with silver. The silver gives the glass a beautiful, rich color.

In the 1890's, Findlay produced Onyx glass for a 6 month period. Because of the expensive production cost and lack sales, they stopped production.

No reproductions were made.

When held to the light there is a fiery color given off by the silver.
