Fostoria Glass 'June' Etch Two-Part Relish Dish

This is a vintage two-part divided relish dish manufactured by Fostoria Glass Company, featuring the delicate 'June' etch pattern. The piece is crafted from high-quality clear (flint) elegant glass, characterized by its clarity and resonance. Its physical form is oval with a scalloped, bracketed rim and two distinctive shell-molded tab handles at the terminals. A central glass divider splits the basin into two equal compartments. The decorative etching features a series of neoclassical floral swags, ribbons, and dainty blossoms (specifically small roses) circling the interior border. This pattern was famously produced during the Depression era, specifically between 1928 and 1944. The construction shows high-level craftsmanship typical of 'Elegant Glass'—a fire-polished finish that eliminates mold seams. Regarding condition, the glass retains excellent transparency with no visible clouding or 'sick' glass, though some light surface scratches are present on the bottom from utilitarian use. There are no major chips or cracks visible on the delicate scalloped edges or the raised central divider, which are common failure points for this style. While no maker's mark is present (as was standard for Fostoria of this period), the specific 'June' etch and shell-handle shape are definitive identifiers of the manufacturer.
