Last post I showed you MacBeth Evans luscious monax translucent white depression glass. They used Monax for American Sweetheart and Petalware where the pure white looks stunning.

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 [...]

It’s just like high school. There are the belles of the ball, Mayfair, Cameo, American Sweetheart and Sharon. There are popular kids, Floral, Georgian, Petalware.
