Clevenger began making these as lamp fonts in the 1940's-50s and later as pitchers but the mold is probably much older. Star & Shield oil lamps with the exact same pattern were made & sold at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. Several South Jersey glass companies

in a private collection. An unique bowl made from the mold is now on ebay - here
