History & Style Notes
This style of ruffled milk glass tray became especially popular during the 1940s–1960s, particularly inspired by pieces produced by makers such as Fenton, Westmoreland, and other American art glass companies. The dramatic hobnail-free ruffled edging with clear or silver crest detailing was beloved for bridal décor, candy dishes, and elegant hostess serving pieces.
The delicate violet motif gives this piece a softer cottage-inspired interpretation of traditional milk glass, making it ideal for romantic cottagecore interiors and floral vignette styling.
