AS BACKGROUND,
IMPERIAL GLASS (CO.)
WAS ONE OF THE VERY LARGEST & MOST SUCCESSFUL GLASS OBJECT MAKERS OF THE
1930 TO 1970S, AND IS WELL KNOWN FOR THEIR UNIQUE DESIGNS (PATTERNS), CHOICE OF VIVID COLORS, & QUALITY DURABILITY
.  THEY WERE MAJOR COMPETITORS  OVER THAT 50 YR PERIOD.
ONE OF THEIR MOST POPULAR PATTERNS
(USED ON VARIOUS GLASS SHAPES, SIZES, COLORS ETC.) WAS THIS
'BEADED BLOCK'
, THOUGH I'VE ALWAYS FELT THEY SHOULD HAVE NAMED IT, 'FANCY ART OR WINDOW FRAMES'.  INTERESTINGLY, NOT JUST THE 'FRAMES' ARE MADE UP OF BEADS, SO ARE THE LARGER SQUARE WINDOW GLASS, THOUGH THEY ARE MUCH LARGER IN NUMBER & MUCH SMALLER IN SIZE INSIDE THE 'WINDOWS', CREATING A SORT OF
FLASHY/MILKY OPAQUE LOOK
TO THE TWO ROWS OF SQUARE WINDOWS.
NO OTHER COMPETITOR EVER TRIED TO CREATE A SIMILAR, SUPER DETAILED, 'LOOK'.  WHILE THIS WAS
LIKELY MADE IN THE 1930S
, IT LITERALLY STILL LOOKS BRAND NEW.  AGAIN, IT'S
5.5 IN. WIDE, AND 2.75 IN. HIGH
.  THERE IS AN
'ART-DECCO' CURVED FINGER LOOP
, ALLOWING A HOST THE OPTION TO OCCASIONALLY HOLD IT & OFFER IT TO MULTIPLE GUESTS WISHING TO TRY THE NUTS, OR MINTS, OR EVEN CHOCOLATES.
AGAIN, WHILE THIS BEAUTY LOOKS NEW, VERY CLOSE EXAMINATION REVEALS A
TINY 'FLEABITE' CHIP ON ONE OF THE 70 OR SO SAWTOOTH PERIMETER POINTS
, THOUGH IT ALSO APPEARS POSSIBLE THAT IT WAS MADE THAT WAY, IE, A TINY FLAW 'AS MADE'.  THE
PEACH COLOR IS VIVID
AND RICH, AND THERE IS
STRONG LUSTER
ON THE
INSIDE
OF THE BOWL &
STRONG LIGHT REFRACTION
ON THE
BACKSIDE
, WHICH SHOWS ALL THE
ORNATE DETAILS
OF THE PATTERN AS MADE.
I'VE KEPT A
100% SATISFACTION RATING HERE THE PAST 24 YRS SINCE 98
