Hawkes Viking long Boat

Hawkes Glass

Thomas Hawkes established the T. G. Hawkes & Company of Corning, New York in 1880. The company became famous for two patterns awarded the Grand Prize at the Paris Exposition (1889).  T. G. Hawkes & Company had become known for creating the finest cut glass since then.

I am trying to find information concerning this Hawkes crystal and silver Viking Long Boat. Has anyone ever seen a piece like this?  Does anyone know anything about when it might have been made?  So far I have not been able to find anyone who has seen a similar piece. Any help that you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
