Vintage White Milk Glass Double-Handled Sugar Bowl

This item is a vintage double-handled sugar bowl crafted from opaque white milk glass, characteristic of Mid-Century American glassware. The bowl features a prominent 'basketweave' or 'checkerboard' molded relief pattern encircling the exterior body, which adds tactile texture and visual depth. The rim is finished with a rhythmic scalloped edge, or 'pie crust' border, following the contours of the molded pattern. It features two geometric, triangular-shaped 'ear' handles fused to the sides, each with a smooth, polished finish contrasting against the textured body. The piece sits on a slightly flared, circular pedestal base which provides stability. In terms of condition, the glass retains a bright, translucent luster typical of high-quality milk glass from the 1940s to 1960s. No immediate chips, cracks, or 'flea bites' are visible in the photograph, though slight surface wear or internal 'straw marks' (common manufacturing artifacts from the era) might be present upon closer inspection. While no maker's mark is visible through the top view, the style is highly reminiscent of pieces produced by major American glass manufacturers like Hazel-Atlas, Anchor Hocking, or Westmoreland. The craftsmanship exhibits clean mold lines and a robust construction suitable for both decorative and functional use.
