Sauce Dish 1884 - 1893

This "Sauce Dish" is a piece of American pressed glass, created between 1884 and 1893 by the New England Glass Company. The dark, translucent glass bowl is characterized by its distinctive, molded, wavy pattern. The piece, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is a prime example of the company's prolific production of utilitarian and decorative objects during the late 19th century.
