Featured is a wonderful Vintage Elegant Glass Tray by Georges Briard.
- Vintage elegant glass, also called “good glass,” is often hand-pressed, hand-molded, or hand-blown, and frequently features hand-finished bases.
- Elegant glass is made of high-quality glass, has fewer visible seams, and lacks the little
- bubbles and wrinkles found in pieces of Depression glass.
- Extra steps made the difference. For example, after a piece was shaped, it was inserted back into a “glory hole” for fire polishing, which gave it a high gloss.
- Most elegant glass was crystal, but some of it was pastel colored and translucent.
- Pattern: Georges Briard Iberia Gold Hollywood Regency
- Color: This is a Vintage Glass Tray designed by Georges Briard, crystal glass with gold overlay, 22 karat gold
