Imperial Open Lace Pink Depression Glass Bowl/Candy Dish

This item is a small, round bowl or candy dish made of pink 'Depression glass'. The glass is translucent with a delicate rose or fuchsia tint. It features a highly intricate embossed pattern, characteristic of the 'Open Lace' or 'Punt 'n' Lace' designs often associated with Imperial Glass. The rim of the bowl is scalloped or fluted, with individual points that create a decorative edge. The body of the bowl displays a complex geometric and floral pattern, including fan-like motifs, sunbursts, and diamond shapes, all deeply pressed into the glass. A blue oval sticker with 'Imperial' written in script and 'USA' below it is adhered to the inside surface, indicating its manufacturer. The bowl appears to be in good condition with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. The vibrant pink color suggests it dates to the Depression Era or a slightly later reproduction period, likely between the 1920s and 1950s. The manufacturing quality is typical of pressed glass from this era, with some slight variations in glass thickness and pattern definition, which are inherent to the production process. The intricate detailing and the enduring presence of the manufacturer's sticker suggest it has been well-preserved.
