Sign In to see what this sold for

SANDWICH ONION / EATON MATCH TRAY, translucent soft blue with a slight lavender tint, rectangular form with a ribbed gallery, deep concave well, striker sides and a ribbed base. Boston & Sandwich Glass Co. 1860-1880. 1 1/2" h, 3 1/2" x 5" base.
Reference: Parallels B & K V, fig. 5174.
Note: This tray is an exact color match to the Onion lamp, lot #187A, in session #1 of this auction. Barlow & Kaiser noted in their volume five, "We have yet to see a match holder and a lamp that are an exact color match." Together, this tray and lamp represent an extremely rare and possibly unique assemblage.
