This pattern was originally called Pattern #775, and is more commonly referred to as PRESSED DIAMOND. It was made by Central Glass Co., Wheeling, WV and first mention of this pattern was in trade papers on Jan. 1, 1885. This pattern was made in clear, blue, amber and canary (vaseline). A rare 'apple green' (that also glows under a blacklight) is known in a couple of shapes (shaker, open salt). This is an extensive pattern of close to 50 pieces. Please see our other auction lots for additional pieces in this pattern. This lot is for the covered sugar, creamer, and spooner. The salt shaker is a bonus in this lot, as it does not match the pattern, other than color. There is a bruise on the shaker. There is minor surface wear on the sugar, creamer and spooner, but no breaks or cracks. Normal surface wear on the undersides of all bases (as expected).
