Grape Purple Amethyst Glass Dinner Plate Set
Purple dinner and salad plate setting for 6. 12 grape amethyst glass plates; (6) dinner & (6) salad. All in perfect condition. In normal lighting, the color appears normal amethyst, but with backlight the grape purple color shows through.
Ringed in rounded ridges which are inverted on the base. Looks a bit like Hazel Atlas Moderntone, but the rings are set closer together on these plates. Possible European Pyrex.
Each are numbered with small pressed numerals on the base ranging from 2 to 32. Light wavy cooling lines are present near the center, indicating old fashioned cooling methods.
Age and maker unknown. Dinner plates measure 10.25″ round, weigh 1.25 lb each, salad plates measure 8.25″ round weigh 3/4 lbs each. Total of 12 plates.
