Circa: 1930
Manufacturer: Cambridge Glass Company/Made in USA
This depression glass oval pink divided veggie/relish dish with a starburst design on the bottom is a Cambridge Glass Company blank from there Round Dinnerware Collection.
The Cambridge Glass Company of Cambridge, Ohio, was incorporated by five individuals. Three men associated with the National Glass Company: Myron Case. Andrew Heron, Addison Thompson; and two local individuals: Fred Rosemond and Casey Norris.
Construction of the plant was completed in early 1902 and in May of that year the first piece of glass, a pitcher, was produced. During the first years the ware produced by the Cambridge Glass Co. came from molds previously used by other glass companies and was typical of the glassware of the period: table sets, jugs, bowls, molasses jugs, jars, tumblers and lamps.
During its peak years, Cambridge had as many as 700 employees working three shifts with all three furnaces running at full blast.
In 1954, Mr. Orme decided to close the plant, ending one of the best and most prosperous glass companies the world has ever known.
In very good condition it measures 1 1/2 inches deep, 8 3/8 inches long and 5 inches wide. A great addition to any Cambridge Glass, Depression or Pink Glass Collection.
