Learning about Depression glass is like taking a stroll back in time to the late 1920s and 1930s. Once I started hunting for different patterns and pieces, I discovered much more than colors and patterns. When I think of Depression glass, I think of the kaleidoscope of colors and myriad patterns of American-made glassware of the Depression era.
Company and color time lines, glossary of glass terminology, index of patterns.
