Thank you to Beverly from How Sweet the Sound for hosting Pink Saturday and allowing me to join the fun.
If you read my Tablescape Thursday post this week you saw a beautiful pink pitcher with a scarf-draped dancer swirling among the scrolls and swags. Today we see the matching tumblers in this pretty pink pattern.
During the 1920s and 1930s a lot of glass companies made designs that featured nearly-nude dancers or nymphs. You’ve probably seen Hocking’s Cameo depression glass and that was the poor man’s version of this delightful theme. Monongah’s Springtime etch and Tiffin’s Psyche were plate etched, similar to the Classic etched tumbler shown here.
Just seeing the dancer on this stem makes me want to grab my scarf and join in. It makes me happy just to look at it. The color is a beautiful pink, not garish or in your face and not wishy washy either, just pink.
