Description: Measures 4 1/4" in diameter and 3" high. Weighs 13 ounces. Wave Crest glass was produced as an opal glass blank and was then hand decorated. Originally called "Opal Ware", this glass was at the height of its popularity from 1890 to 1910. Much of the opal glass known as Wave Crest was produced by the Mt. Washington Glass Co. and was purchased by the C. F. Monroe Co. as undecorated glass blanks to be decorated by their artists. This lovely dresser box features a soft pale yellow background with pink enameled flowers and soft green foliage on center top and a molded swirl design on top edge and around center of base. Box interior has a golden satin fabric lining that appears to be original to the box. The top and base are fitted with an embossed brass band. The hinge is tight and box opens and closes correctly. The condition of this lovely box is excellent with no chips, cracks or repairs. The brass band has very minor signs of tarnish and appears to have never been polished.
