Westmoreland Paneled Grape Milk Glass Dish

A Westmoreland Paneled Grape milk glass covered candy dish.

Westmoreland Specialty Company was founded in 1889 in East Liverpool, Ohio, and later moved to Grapeville, Pennsylvania. They became renowned for their high-quality pressed glass, particularly their milk glass items, which were popular from the late 19th century through the mid-20th century. The company was known for producing decorative and functional glassware, often featuring intricate patterns and designs that appealed to a wide audience. The "Paneled Grape" pattern is one of Westmoreland's most recognizable and sought-after designs. Introduced in the early 20th century, this pattern features embossed grape clusters and leaves within defined panels, giving the glass a rich, textured appearance. These covered dishes, often referred to as candy dishes or puff boxes, were produced in various sizes and were highly decorative additions to Victorian and Art Deco-era homes.
