About Depression Glass:
Saying times were tough during the Great Depression is nothing less than an understatement. Those that didn’t lose their jobs were often forced to take pay cuts. Learning to live on little or nothing was the way of life for many families for a decade or more. Today we recognize many items used in the home during the 1930s as collectibles, including Depression glass.
To those who look beyond the surface and partake in the challenges and triumphs offered, Depression glass is more than just another collection. It provides an intriguing, interesting hobby rich with history, and it brightens the home along with the spirit.
What is Depression Glass?
From the late-20's through the early '40s, manufacturers such as Federal Glass, MacBeth-Evans, and Hocking Glass brought a little cheer into some very dreary days by manufacturing the product we now know as Depression glass. This mass-produced molded glassware was of relatively poor quality, often exhibiting air bubbles, heavy mold marks and other flaws in the glass, yet it came in beautiful colors and patterns to suit every taste.
The most popular colors with collectors today are pink, cobalt blue and green. It was made in amber, iridescent, opaque white known as Monax, and several other colors. Some of the most popular patterns buyers seek today are Cameo, Mayfair, American Sweetheart, Princess and Royal Lace. Even the pattern names alluded to better times and a longing for the glamorous lifestyles of the 1920s.
