This cobalt blue glass cup plate, dating from 1830–35, is a beautiful example of early American pressed glass. The plate's design features a bold, central image of an eagle clutching arrows, symbolizing the strength and resilience of the newly formed United States. The plate's scalloped edge adds a touch of elegance, further enhancing its charm. This anonymous piece, now housed in The Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the early glassmaking industry in America.
