Besides monax MacBeth Evans developed a creamier, almost beige colored glass during the depression they called Cremax or Ivrene. Usually the Ivrene refers to the darkest shade, which [...]

I’m not a big fan of white as a color but I’ll make an exception for monax depression glass from MacBeth Evans. I love this glass. It’s thin and opalescent on the edges and the color is soft white that invites you to touch it. MacBeth Evans used monax for American Sweetheart and Petalware in [...]

Soft and white and slightly translucent, this plate is Petalware from MacBeth Evans. MacBeth Evans is the same company that made Dogwood and American Sweetheart. They were one of the few companies that made full lines of white depression glass dinnerware and their monax white is the prettiest. You can see the blue where the [...]

I came across this pretty little piece of depression glass when I was getting some Dogwood out to wrap and ship to a customer. This is S Pattern or Stippled Rose Band from MacBeth Evans. S Pattern is like Dogwood in shape and feel with thin glass and a delicate pattern on shapes that are [...]

People use these for weddings, showers and open house type events where guests can serve themselves. The tidbits look special and make even store-bought cupcakes look great. Recently I [...]

We’ve talked before about the way I buy glass, which is from local flea markets, estate sales and eBay. Locally I can usually find elegant glass but depression glass in good condition is getting scarce. Last time we went to the flea market I left behind some Normandie, Sharon and Madrid glass that was worn. [...]
