White Milk Glass Covered Compote/Candy Dish with Grape and Vine Pattern

This item is a covered compote or candy dish, crafted from white milk glass. It features a hexagonal or octagonal shape in its body and base, with a matching faceted lid topped by a knob-like finial for easy lifting. The surface of both the lid and the body is adorned with intricate embossed or molded designs, primarily depicting clusters of grapes and intertwining vines, characteristic of a 'Harvest Grape' or 'Grape and Vine' pattern. The milk glass itself appears to be opaque white with a subtle translucence in certain areas, occasionally exhibiting the characteristic slight yellowish or bluish tint common in older milk glass. There are no visible chips, cracks, or repairs, suggesting good overall condition. Patina or surface wear appears minimal, though a faint reddish mark, likely an inventory or pricing indicator such as 'x2', is present on the base, which is not inherent to the item's design. The craftsmanship suggests it was likely mass-produced, typical for glassware from the mid-20th century. Based on the style and material, it likely dates from the 1940s to 1960s, a period when milk glass was highly popular. Its design balances decorative appeal with functional utility.
