Dessert / Salad Plates: Avon, Hummingbird & Morning Glory, Frosted Etched Crystal, Set of 8, Vintage France

Light moves differently through frosted crystal — softer, more diffuse — and that quality suits the hummingbird perfectly. Caught mid-hover among Morning Glory blooms, the etched design glows against the glass in a way that's almost botanical illustration.

Made in France between 1986 and 1995, this Avon Hummingbird set of eight salad and dessert plates is a rare complete find. The frosting is achieved through etching, giving each plate a silky matte finish against clear crystal — no two catch the light quite the same way. Hand washing required to preserve the finish. Note: crystal plates are heavy; we may ship in two boxes to ensure safe arrival.

Ideal for a spring or summer table, a garden luncheon, Mother's Day, or Easter. A complete set of eight in this condition is genuinely hard to find — a generous and beautiful gift.
