Details: An extremely rare and hard to find glass serving platter / tray / plate from Culver. The pattern consists of a 22KT Gold Christmas Bear wearing his red and green plaid vest and scarf. On his head he has a red & green striped knit hat and he's surrounded by Christmas gifts. The platter is clear glass with several thin thin gold rings, and a green and a red ring around the bear. This tray is large, it will need a lot of packaging to make it to you safely, please keep that in mind at check-out. It is marked with the Culver name near the center. The Replacements website lists this pattern as CUV21, the Culver Collector's Manual doesn't show a name for it, and we know many Culver patterns were never named, but we've seen a box of glasses stamped "Yule Bear". Whatever you call it, is is a fun Christmas pattern that will be enjoyed for year to come!
