    Description

    The Cathay pattern was designed for the Imperial Glass Company in 1949 by Virginia B Evans.  The pattern was short lived due to the high costs of production as well as distribution.
    The fan-shaped,covered Sweetmeat box is clear glass. It is triangular in shape and measures approximately 2 1/2" in height with the lid, 8" along the straight sides and 9 3/4" across the curved top of the fan cover. Both lid & base are decorated with embossed oriental emblems. Beautiful detailed lid/cover!!!
    So many ways this piece can be used!!!  Use it as a trinket dish, candy dish wonderful piece to display on a vanity.
    Signed Virginia B Evans as photo shows.
    There is one tiny fleabite on the lid.  Certainly nothing that takes away from the beauty of this piece.
    From a smoke free home.
    My glass is always wrapped in foam first & then bubble wrap.

    A beautiful and sparkling Punch /Salad Bowl with 12 matching cups. Perfect for Thanksgiving and Christmas. No chips or scratches found. There are four flaws which I find near upper rim. These each appear to be cracks and I am able to feel with my fingernail BUT ABSOLUTELY NOT felt on upper edge nor on inside where is totally smooth . See last two photos where I show the ‘longest’ flaw line of the four.
    The footed base is scalloped.
    Bowl measures 13 1/2” across and 7 1/8” deep.
