VERY DECO! This lovely #1435 gold decorated center handle server was produced by the Central Glass Company in the 1930s. The gold decoration is very similar to, but is not exactly like Wheeling's "Laurel Leaf"  decoration.  There is a good possibility that Wheeling or another company decorated this lovely piece.
This awesome server is in
UNDAMAGED CONDITION without chips, cracks, or mold imperfections.
The cake plate is free of scratching.  The enameled orange color is pristine.  This piece is unusual and would make a great addition to any collection of Depression Era glassware.
Central Glass Works
-
Central Glass Works was formed from a former company called Central Glass Company. The Central Glass Company was established in the late 1860s. This company made bottles, lamps and pressed and blown tableware. During the 1880s The United States Glass Company purchased the Central Glass Company, but due to lack of natural glass supplies and labor troubles they soon shut the plant down. In 1895 Nathan Bay Scott and several Wheeling businessmen acquired enough capital to reopen the plant. The plant which was now known as Central Glass Works is the one that Depression Glass enthusiasts are the most concerned with. Central Glass Works (often called "The Works") survived for 44 years before closing their doors for good in 1939. The tough Depression years took their toll and The Works could not survive rising fuel and production costs. Although not as well known as many of the larger Depression Glass companies, Central Glass Works made many beautiful pieces. They designed some beautiful etchings. Harding is one of their better known etches. It was the choice of President and Mrs. Harding during their term in the White House. The Works was famous for its abundant stemware line. They also produced many console sets. Their candlesticks can be found in pink, green, crystal and amber. Some of these sets were produced in stretch glass colors as well. Some of the Information for this brief history came from the book "Colored Glassware of the Depression Era 2" by Hazel Marie Weatherman.
