    I was wondering if anyone could help me identify this cobalt blue change tray with handle. Couldn't find anything similar online. Any info would be appreciated thanks.

    Is it a sugar packet caddy?

    That's what I thought too but the ones I saw online all had taller sides. Couldnt find a sugar pocket caddy that looked like mine so I thought maybe it was a change tray instead. Not for sure if it is though

    Very possible...or just a trinket box for a dresser.

    I think is may be for Canasta...a card tray.

    Central Glass Co., Wheeling, WV., made a basket with a salt and pepper in the pockets, also made that color about the same time. ca. 1885. see if you can find old central catalogs on line.

    I was going to say the same as Cherryhill, but he beat me to it.
    Salt and pepper caddy.

    Although I should add, I didn't know it was Central Glass Co.

    This one is listed as Imperial. Which would be a newer version of what Cherryhill mentioned.

    Wow thank you guys! What date would you put mine as?

    Depends, if it is Central Glass as suggested by Tom, then early 1900s.
    If it is Imperial, then 1950s or later.
    Those are just guesses.

    You need to do some research.

    Yes, Imperial bought out Central's factory about 1939, Made several/many of their odd pieces, don't thing they made any pattern goods. I'd date the blue caddy/salt/pepper to 1885, Central after 1891 was under different ownership.
