Product Details

Anchor Hocking Glass Corporation, founded in 1905, became a prominent American glassware manufacturer known for its durable and affordable pressed glass items. They produced a wide array of kitchenware, tableware, and decorative pieces, often featuring intricate patterns that appealed to a broad consumer base. The company's "Fire-King" line is particularly famous, but their general glassware also holds significant collector interest. This particular piece, featuring the "Star of David" or "Star" pattern, is a classic example of mid-century American pressed glass. Such dishes were commonly used for serving candies, nuts, or relishes, adding a decorative touch to dining tables and home decor. The olive green color is characteristic of many popular glassware colors from the 1950s and 1960s, a period when decorative pressed glass saw a resurgence in popularity.
