Clear Glass Rectangular Baking Dish with Embossed Floral Design

This is a clear glass rectangular baking dish, measuring approximately 15 inches in length, 9.5 inches in width, and 2.5 inches deep. The dish is constructed from transparent, heat-resistant glass, likely soda-lime or borosilicate, giving it a somewhat bluish-green tint when viewed from the edges, typical of many vintage glasswares. Its overall shape is a classic rectangular form with slightly curved corners and gently flared, wing-like handles integrated into the shorter sides. A distinctive feature is the embossed floral design covering the entire interior bottom surface and extending up the interior sidewalls. The pattern features a dense arrangement of small, stylized flowers with leaves, creating a textured, almost etched appearance that is visible from both the interior and exterior of the dish. This design not only adds aesthetic appeal but also provides a non-slip surface for food. The rim is smooth and slightly rounded, offering a comfortable grip. Condition-wise, the dish appears to be in good used condition, with no apparent chips, cracks, or significant abrasions visible in the image. There may be some minor surface wear consistent with age and use, such as light scratches or water spots, but these are not clearly discernible in the provided photographs. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures that can be identified from the images. The 'Not for broiler use' indication suggests it's designed for conventional oven baking, refrigerator, or microwave use. Given the style of the embossed pattern, this dish likely dates from the mid to late 20th century. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced utilitarian glassware, focusing on practicality and durability with an added decorative touch.
