Frosted Floral Pattern Glass Lidded Candy Dish

This item is a clear glass lidded candy dish or trinket jar, exhibiting a classic, somewhat ornate design. Physically, it stands upright, appearing to be crafted from molded clear glass, giving it a substantial and elegant feel. The body of the jar features vertical fluting or ribbing, which creates a textured surface that reflects light beautifully. On one side, there is a prominent frosted glass design depicting a large, stylized flower, possibly a hibiscus or similar tropical bloom, with delicate radiating lines indicating petals and leaves. This frosted detail contrasts nicely with the clear glass, adding a decorative element. The lid is also made of clear glass, with radial facets or fluting extending from its center, culminating in a decorative, faceted finial or knob at the top, likely for easy gripping. The craftsmanship appears to be commercial grade, indicative of mass production, but with attention to detail in the molding and frosting. There are no immediately visible condition issues such as chips, cracks, or significant abrasions from the provided image; the glass appears clean and intact, suggesting good preservation or light use. No specific maker's marks or signatures are discernible. Based on the style, particularly the frosted floral detail and faceted knob, this piece likely dates from the mid-to-late 20th century, possibly 1970s-1990s, aligning with common patterns of decorative glassware during that period. It serves a functional purpose for storage while also acting as an attractive decorative accent.
