Description: This listing is for a pretty small Wave Crest Art Glass dresser box made by the C. F. Monroe Co., c. 1900. Measures 3" in diameter and 2 3/4" high. Weighs 9 ounces. Wave Crest glass was produced as an opal glass blank and was then hand decorated. Originally called "Opal Ware", this glass was at the height of its popularity from 1890 to 1910. Much of the opal glass known as Wave Crest was produced by the Mt. Washington Glass Co. and was purchased by the C. F. Monroe Co. as undecorated glass blanks to be decorated by their artists. The top and base are fitted with an embossed brass band. The hinge is tight and box opens and closes correctly. This lovely box is in excellent Estate condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. The brass band has very minor signs of tarnish and appears to have never been polished. Please look closely at pictures for details thank you for visiting me 🌺
