{"product_id":"amber-glass-sandwich-plate","title":"Crown Crystal Glass Co. Amber Sandwich Tray, Pattern #317, Art Deco, c.1930s, Made in Australia","description":"\u003cp\u003eLong before \"buy Australian\" was a marketing slogan, it was simply what people did. The Crown Crystal Glass Company in Waterloo, Sydney was producing pressed glassware for Australian households throughout the 1930s — affordable, beautiful, and entirely local. Pattern #317 is one of their most satisfying designs: a rectangular sandwich tray built around a geometric sunburst radiating from the centre, the kind of Art Deco motif that was everywhere in the 1930s and has never really gone out of style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe starburst base catches light beautifully — honey amber glass refracting into warm gold tones depending on where it sits. The narrow fluted rim runs vertically around the upward lip, transitioning into a subtly scalloped smooth top edge. Heavy for its size, with the satisfying solidity of proper pressed glass. A considered addition to a kitchen dresser, a tablescape, or a collection of Australian depression glass — and a genuine piece of Sydney manufacturing history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crown Crystal Glass Company, Waterloo, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e #317 (Sunburst \/ Starburst)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rectangular sandwich tray \/ celery tray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Art Deco; c.1930s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.5 cm long × 11 cm wide × 2.5 cm tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 487 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy pressed glass, honey amber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vintage condition.
