Clear Pressed Glass Deviled Egg Plate with Scalloped Edges

This is a clear pressed glass deviled egg plate, circular in shape with distinct scalloped edges. The plate is designed with 15 individual depressions for holding deviled eggs, arranged in a radial pattern around a central circular area. Each egg depression features a textured, hobnail-like or dimpled pattern on its base, providing both visual interest and potentially preventing the eggs from sliding. The central circular area of the plate also exhibits a dense hobnail or raised dot pattern, extending across its entire surface. The glass appears to be of standard clarity, transparent and uncolored. The scalloped edges are well-defined, suggesting a molded manufacturing process typical of pressed glass. There are no readily apparent maker's marks, signatures, or stamps visible in the provided image. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear visible, though a more detailed inspection might reveal minor surface scratches or use-related wear common with vintage glass items. The style suggests it could date from the mid-20th century, a common period for decorative and functional pressed glass tableware. The craftsmanship is utilitarian but decorative, typical for serving dishes of this type during its probable era of manufacture. The intricate hobnail patterns add a touch of elegance and visual texture.
