Circa: 1945-1962
Manufacturer: Consolidated Lamp & Glass Company, Coraopolis, PA
This type of solid milk glass decorated glass belonged to a line that Consolidated dubbed Con- Cora, deriving from the first few letters of the names Consolidated and Coraopolis, the town near Pittsburgh where Consolidated made glass.
Milk glass became immensely popular after World War II. Almost every American glass company put out its version. Westmoreland, Imperial are the better known names associated with this glass. This line was Consolidated's entry into the crowded marketplace.
Dating from the 1945-1962, most Consolidated Con-Cora items were decorated in one of the three most popular lines: Ivy, Violet, and Rose. This piece is decorated in dark greens and browns of the #1330 Green Leaf Ivy pattern. Each of the dots between the quilt diamonds is decorated in gold. The shape is #5100, the large covered Cracker Jar. The jar measures 8 inches tall x 8 inches in width , a substantial piece of glass.
At Consolidated, we know there were nine women decorators who hand-painted the decorations on these pieces. This vase is signed with the initials WH for Wally Hindle. It is in excellent vintage shape. Add it to your Consolidated or milk glass collection today.
