Depression Glass Patterns

Depression glassware was popular and affordable. The dime store, where the thrifty homemaker could find everything from toiletries to household goods, proved to be a common source for this inexpensive purchase. Depression glass also made its way into American homes through the issuance of premiums. Sellers or manufacturers would offer a free gift with the purchase of a certain dollar amount of goods or a specific product. It was sometimes packed with breakfast cereals, put into flour sacks, or just given to customers in grocery stores, gasoline stations, or movie theatres.

Depression Glass was produced in the USA during the Depression years of the 1920's and 1930's. Generally it was made by machine in a range of colors and a vast amount of it was tableware and kitchenware. Not all pressed glass made in the USA during the Depression years comes into this category.

Higher quality pressed glass, usually with ground bottoms and fire polished, was made by companies such as Heisey, Imperial, Fostoria, and Cambridge and sold through jewelry stores and department stores. This glass is normally called "Elegant Glass" and is most commonly found in crystal color.
