Pink Depression Glass Windsor Pattern Cookie Jar with Lid

This item is a vintage cookie jar, specifically identified as a 'Windsor' pattern piece, crafted from pink Depression Glass. The jar features an octagonal or multi-sided body with flat, slightly outwardly curved panels. The main body of the jar is adorned with intricate molded-in decorative panels on each primary face. These panels feature a stylized floral or scrolling leaf motif, indicative of the pressed glass designs popular during the Depression era. Vertical bands, possibly with a subtle ribbed or beaded texture, separate these decorative panels, adding to its structured design. The glass itself is a characteristic soft, translucent pink hue, commonly known as 'Depression pink.' The jar is topped with a matching pink glass lid that has a slightly domed profile and a distinctive faceted knob. The knob has multiple angles, adding a touch of traditional elegance. The rim of the lid appears to have a small overhang, designed to sit securely within the jar's opening. The overall condition appears good for its age, with no immediately visible chips, cracks, or significant damage, though minor surface wear consistent with age and use (such as faint scratches or light scuffing) is often present in such pieces and cannot be fully assessed from the image provided. The craftsmanship reflects the mass-produced nature of Depression Glass, which often exhibits minor imperfections like mold lines, bubbles, or variations in glass thickness, all considered part of its authentic character. This piece likely dates from the 1930s to 1940s.
