Vintage Westmoreland Milk Glass Maple Leaf Candy Box and Scarce Mother of Pearl Paneled Grape Tidbit Tray

Westmoreland Glass, in business from 1889-1984, is one of my favorite vintage glass companies. I always seem drawn to this company's glassware, especially their milk glass pieces. Their most popular milk glass line is called Paneled Grape; this pattern features grape clusters in panels. (Incidentally, Westmoreland was located in the community of Grapeville, PA.)
Shown above is a milk glass Paneled Grape tidbit tray or server, and this one has the beautiful, iridescent, mother-of-pearl finish. This piece is considered scarce. It is available for purchase at www.onlineauction.com.

Another smaller milk glass pattern made by Westmoreland is called Maple Leaf or Bramble. This pattern features an all-over leaf design, and it is not found as easily as Paneled Grape. Available for purchase is the round, covered candy box or dish; I also have the cupped bowl available in this pretty pattern.

Hehe... I think I should start a personal collection of milk glass pieces! ;)

My latest addition to my milk glass collection is a two piece, round milk glass dish that is shaped like a BASEBALL! It's not made by Westmoreland, but it's a pretty cool item!
