Description
C-18356
Grouping of three pressed glass cake stands featuring classic scalloped and floral-edged designs. Each pedestal form rests on a molded stem and circular foot, two with beaded rims and one with a fluted top etched with grapevine motifs. The mix of clear and faintly green-tinted glass reflects mid-century production methods, offering subtle variations in clarity and tone. Pieces like these were commonly used for bakery display or formal dining presentation and are now favored for their simple, utilitarian elegance. Companies such as Indiana Glass and Anchor Hocking were leading American glass producers during the early-to-mid 20th century, supplying both decorative and practical glassware to department stores and soda fountains nationwide.
Light surface wear and minor utensil marks consistent with age. One stand shows slight yellowing to the glass and minimal base wear from use.
Etched: 9.25" dia and 7.25" H
