During the Depression glass years (1930’s to early 1940’s) it was necessary to find a way to make glass less expensive for the cash starved consumer. Due to World War II, some essential glass making materials were impossible to procure and expensive. Lead, a major ingredient in authentic glass, was preserved for war making.  The quality of glass suffered during these years, but took on a collectible quality that sets it apart today.

These lovely etched Depression glass wine stems are 7″ tall.
