<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marie Forjan, post: 3752268, member: 147&quot;]Nice find!</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s not Depression Glass. Depression Glass generally refers to inexpensive glass produced during the Depression. The glass saw very little if any hand finishing, the designs were molded in the glass and the it was sold in &quot;Dime&quot; stores or given away in bags of flour or cereal, etc. It would likely have been used on a day to day basis. The glass was produced by makers such as Hocking, Federal, Jeannette, Hazel Atlas to name a few. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your piece is classed as Elegant Glass. Elegant glass is a term dealers and collectors use for glass that has been hand finished. Mold lines were fire polished out, decorating was done by painting, acid etch or cutting (yours is acid etched). Elegant Glass was made in different eras including during the Depression. The glass would have been sold in &quot;nicer&quot; stores such as large department stores or jewelry stores. Fostoria, Cambridge, Heisey, and Morgantown are a few names of companies that produced Elegant Glass.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
