Lot #9: Vintage Peach Milk Glass Compote Bowl w/ Grapevine Relief, Heavy Pressed Glass - Mosser USA

Soft peach milk glass meets sculptural detail in this substantial compote bowl. The raised grape-and-vine relief, scalloped rim, and glossy finish give it serious presence on a mantel, console, or dining table. It functions beautifully as a candy or trinket dish—and flip it over and it becomes a petite pedestal/stand for a plate or candle. American vintage charm with modern versatility. Details - Form: Footed compote / bowl (reversible as a pedestal) - Dimensions (in): approx. 5.1″ L x 5.1″ W x 5.3″ H - Weight: 2.6 lb (1185 g) - Color: Peach (opaque “milk glass”/opaline) - Pattern: Grape & leaf relief, scalloped rim, beaded collar detail - Mark: Impressed “M” inside the foot (see photos) - Production (best-fit): Likely Mosser Glass, Cambridge, Ohio. Reason: Mosser pieces are commonly impressed with an M mark and the company is known for reissuing classic pressed-glass patterns in pastel milk glass tones. Short confidence note: Based on the impressed M and weight/finish consistent with Mosser’s pressed glass, we believe this is Mosser USA; however, because molds and patterns have been reproduced by several makers, we are not 100% certain of the exact maker and date. We believe this piece was produced during the late 20th century (circa 1980s–1990s), based on the impressed ‘M’ mark and pastel peach color. Materials - Pressed soda-lime glass (opaque “milk glass” / opaline) - Gloss glaze finish Condition Excellent vintage condition—no chips or cracks noted. Minor factory characteristics typical of pressed glass (light seams/flow lines or pinpoint glaze specks) may be present on close inspection.
