Time period: 1900-1930’s Pressed glass toothpick holders became widely popular in America during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly from the 1880s through the 1920s. These small decorative vessels were produced by numerous glass companies using mechanical pressing techniques that allowed for intricate geometric and floral patterns at affordable prices. The starburst and fan motifs seen on this piece were among the most common decorative elements of the era, reflecting the Victorian taste for ornate tableware and the practical need for toothpick storage in dining settings.
