Vintage Milk Glass Hands Dish Grapes Cupped Hands

$118.00

A vintage milk glass dish shaped as two softly cupped hands, ready to hold something small and meaningful — a ring you slip off at night, a bar of French soap by the sink, or even just light. First patented in 1875 by G.E. Hatch, this was made in the 1940's and marked W G for the well-known Westmoreland Glass. It has that soft, opalescent white glow only true milk glass has. Around the wrists, little clusters of grapes and leaves spill into the form, giving it a gentle, almost garden-like feeling — like something you might find resting on a stone ledge outside an old country home.

It’s one of those pieces that doesn’t need styling to feel beautiful, but it does love a setting. On a marble vanity, beside a bath, near an open window where the air moves in and out quietly — it just settles in and feels right. Originally these hands dishes were made for small keepsakes and sentimental objects, this is the larger size. Things you didn’t want to lose, or didn’t want to forget. That’s really what this still feels like.

  • Measures 7-1/2" x 5-3/4"w x 1-1/2"

Collector’s Notes

Milk glass hands dishes with grape detailing are especially loved for their sculptural shape and soft symbolic presence. Marked examples with this level of detail are getting harder to come across.
