Title: Going glass crazy
Post by: wendy177 on August 07, 2012, 12:57:16 PM

Hi all I have been going through box after box of glass and came across this little beauty, I have no clue what it was used for  ( a trinket dish?) and have not done any research but didnt know if anyone has seen one before. It is small and when placed diamond pattern side down so bowl is up & open it does not sit flat (a little wobbly) Thanks for any help!

Just one piece mart  I posted photos of looking at the  top (bowl up & open I think that is the top??  ) & flipped it for the bottom. Ghopper not sure if they made them that small back in the day as the glass is old, will have to look into that :)

I was going to ask about size before seeing the last post !! I remember ashtrays like that !! 70`s !! But maybe not big enough for that !!

I have seen bride's baskets that were that small, but I was only half serious with my suggestion.
