A Collection of Vintage Glass and Ceramic Decorative Items
Description
An assortment of vintage decorative objects including glassware and ceramic figurines. The first piece is a canary yellow pressed glass footed bowl featuring three small feet and an etched interior with floral and scrollwork patterns. A central starburst medallion is visible on the underside. The second item is a clear pressed glass commemorative advertising dish or tray. It features a high-relief central bust of a Native American man in a feathered headdress, surrounded by the embossed text BUY CLASSPORT LOTS 1903. The dish is finished with a beaded or serrated rim. Also included is a matching pair of polychrome glazed ceramic bird figurines, likely representing quails or partridges. The birds are decorated in mottled shades of brown and tan with vibrant red accents on the head and are perched on textured green bases.
Condition report:
The yellow glass bowl shows several fine lines radiating from the center medallion, which appear to be internal stress cracks or deep surface scratches. The clear Glassport advertising dish is in good condition with no significant chips or cracks observed. One of the ceramic bird figurines has a prominent chip on the tip of its beak, revealing the white ceramic body. Both birds show minor surface wear consistent with age.
