Vintage Cobalt Blue Glass Decorative Vessel and Matching Dish Set

This set consists of two distinct pieces of vintage pressed or blown-molded cobalt blue glass. The first item is a miniature bud vase featuring a squat, bulbous body that transitions into a wide, flared neck and a reinforced rim. The base appears slightly footed, providing stability for its top-heavy silhouette. The second item is a round, open-top vessel or votive holder with a similar globular form, accompanied by a matching flat-bottomed saucer or underplate. Both pieces exhibit a deep, uniform cobalt blue hue that is highly saturated and translucent when exposed to light, a classic color achieved through the addition of cobalt oxide during the glassmaking process. Physically, the glass appears to be in good vintage condition with a glossy surface finish. While no specific maker's marks are visible from this angle, the style is characteristic of mid-20th-century decorative glassware, likely produced between the 1940s and 1970s. This type of glass was commonly manufactured by American companies such as Hazel-Atlas, Fenton, or Anchor Hocking. The construction shows smooth edges and consistent wall thickness, indicating quality mass production. There are no obvious chips, cracks, or large-scale abrasions visible, although minor surface scratches (shelf wear) on the bottom of the base would be expected for items of this age. The set is notable for its vibrant color coordination and its versatile use as both floral displays and ambient lighting or trinket storage.
