Description
Round Lidded Candy Dish / Bon Bon Box: This plump little charmer sits on three small feet and features an all-over pressed hobstar and circle motif with a domed lid topped by a faceted ball finial. The bottom shows a beautifully textured interior in a classic early American pressed glass tradition. A sweet centerpiece for any vanity or sideboard.
Pedestal Candy Compote with Lid: Standing proud on a square pedestal base, this lidded compote features a diamond and block pattern across its four-sided body with a stepped square lid and button finial. It has the hallmarks of late Victorian or early 20th century pressed glass and would be right at home holding wrapped chocolates or jewelry.
Tall Glass Basket with Handle: This elegant fan-shaped basket with a tall arched ribbed handle is the showpiece of the lot. The scalloped ruffled rim and ribbed body panels give it a timeless Victorian flair, and the star-burst base adds a brilliant finishing touch. Likely early 20th century American pressed glass.
Small Handled Creamer or Toothpick Cup: A petite ribbed cup with a scalloped rim and a pressed medallion motif on its side, complete with an applied handle. It pairs beautifully with the basket and suggests this may be part of a larger table service set.
Oval Pressed Glass Berry Bowl: A generously sized oval bowl featuring bold hobstar and sawtooth panels around the exterior walls with a starburst center on the interior base. Sturdy and decorative, this piece works equally well as a fruit bowl or a stunning catch-all on a dresser.
Scalloped Round Relish or Candy Tray: A shallow round tray with a scalloped petal-shaped edge and an intricate sunburst and diamond fan pattern radiating from the center. Two small tab handles make it easy to pass around the table. Charming and practical in equal measure.
Square Cut Glass Serving Plate or Tray: This diamond-shaped flat serving plate features a dramatic large eight-pointed star in the center surrounded by fan and hobstar motifs with a beaded scalloped border. A true American Brilliant Period style piece that photographs like a dream.
Glass Cornucopia Horn of Plenty Vase: The wildcard of the lot and arguably the most unique piece, this curved horn-of-plenty vase features an all-over pressed hobstar and sunburst pattern running along its gracefully arched body, with a scalloped wide mouth and a pointed tip. It is a rare and delightful form that collectors actively seek out.
Long Curved Glass Knife Rest or Celery Holder: An elegant elongated curved bar piece with a pointed tip on one end and a scalloped wider end, decorated with repeated pressed sunburst and geometric medallion panels. Likely a knife rest or decorative bar accessory, this unusual piece adds a wonderfully quirky note to the collection.
