The Windsor pattern has long been discontinued and it's history is a bit complex.  It was introduced by Federal Glass (circa 1970), but Lancaster Colony, the parent company to Indiana Glass, purchased Federal Glass molds after Federal Glass closed (1980). Indiana Glass used the original Federal Glass molds and reissued the Windsor pattern in the 1980's. Some of the reissues were marketed as Windsor, others were marketed as Royal Brighton, all mostly in color glass. There is another pattern from Jeannette Glass called Windsor Diamond, but it looks very different from this one. Based on a 1971 advertisement for Windsor, looks like the divided dish was part of the original release from Federal Glass.
