    I'm still helping my sister go thru boxes of "stuff", this little item included...

    I don't know milk glass at all. I'm wondering if this little trinket/dresser box(?) or covered candy dish(?) can be attributed to any particular maker, and if it's (as I assume - uh oh) from the 1960's or thereabouts. It's about 4" across and 3 1/2" tall with the lid on.

    The 3rd photo is of the bottom of the bowl portion.

    Thank you SO much!

    I think it's Kemple's Lace and Dewdrop covered bowl maybe #402. I think the date is a little earlier than the 1960's. From what I can gather from my Kemple book the molds for this line were purchased in the mid 1940's.

    I have a cake stands in this pattern by Co-operative Flint and by Phoenix. Here's what I've found about the pattern history:
    1902 Co-Operative Glass #1902 Lacy Dewdrop in crystal
    1937 Phoenix Glass #800 Lace Dew Drop in painted milk glass and iridized 'pearl lustre' w/ Phoenix Sculptured Artware labels
    1944-1970 Kemple Glass #400 Lace and Dewdrop

    SBSVC and Tallcakes are the dernier cri! I think your little jar is adorable -- doesn't it remind you of a parlour maid's cap (back in the day)?
