Pink Depression Glass Stemmed Compote or Candy Dish

This item is a vintage pink depression glass compote, likely dating between the 1920s and 1930s. The piece features a shallow, flared bowl with a subtly scalloped or rolled rim and a decorative optic pattern that catches the light. One of its most distinguishing features is the twisted or 'spiral' stem (often referred to as a rope twist), which connects the bowl to a circular, flat pedestal base. The color is a delicate translucent salmon-pink, characteristic of many glass manufacturers of that era like Fostoria, Tiffin, or Cambridge. The construction is molded or pressed glass, though the clarity and thinness suggest a piece of higher quality. Physically, the item appears to be in good vintage condition with no major chips or cracks visible in the provided image. There is a slight amber-like warmth to the base, which may be due to the lighting or the specific chemical composition of the glass batch. Pieces like this were mass-produced but are now highly collectible for their elegant Art Deco silhouettes and historical significance in American domestic glassware. The craftsmanship is evident in the uniform distribution of color and the intricate detail of the twisted stem.
