Step back in time to the golden age of American glassware with this exquisite A.H. Heisey & Co. "Orchid" Etched Dish. A piece of true Elegant Glass, this lovely 3-footed bowl carries the legacy of one of America's finest crystal makers, produced between 1940 and 1957.

This is more than just a small bowl—it’s a miniature canvas of high-quality craftsmanship, perfect for the discerning collector or as a sophisticated touch to your modern table.

The Story in the Glass

The Rare Etching: The defining feature is the beloved Orchid Etching (#507). This intricate design features large, blooming orchid flowers tied together by delicate, flowing ribbons and garlands. Unlike mass-produced Depression Glass, Heisey’s etching was a precise, multi-step process that delivers a level of detail that virtually floats on the crystal.

The Unique Footing: The dish rests upon three distinctive, small flared feet, giving it an elevated, stately presence that catches the light and creates beautiful shadows.

The Perfect Size: Measuring 5.5 inches in length and just 2 inches tall, this item was originally designed as a Jam, Jelly, or Bonbon Dish. Today, it is an ideal size for serving fine candies, mints, lemon wedges, jewelry trinkets, or as a decorative item on a vanity.
