Divided Tray, Jeannette Glass, Shell Pink, Feather Pattern, USA, Vintage 1957

Jeannette Glass introduced Shell Pink milk glass in 1957, and production ended by 1959 — a window of just two years that makes all Shell Pink pieces relatively scarce today. This Feather pattern divided platter is one of the larger pieces in the line at 16 inches long, with six sections framed by raised feather motifs and a beaded outer border. It is heavy, as all Shell Pink pieces are.

A rare find for Shell Pink collectors or anyone assembling a Jeannette Glass collection. Beautiful displayed on a shelf or sideboard as much as used at the table. A meaningful gift for the serious milk glass collector.
