Avon Cape Cod Glassware Set 13 shops pcs

Product Name: Avon Cape Cod Glassware Set 13 shops pcs
The design is based on an old, sandwich glass pattern and inspired by the lacy delicacy of the classic Roman rosette pattern, introduced in 1975 by Wheaton Glass for Avon. They were commissioned to do the pieces, since they were already making decorative decanters for them. Avon chose to call their new dinnerware the 1876 Cape Cod Collection because it recalled shops the beauty of this quality glass and the spirit of the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial, which celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the area where sandwich glass originated. This was Avon's first venture into a dinnerware line and, because it was well received, Avon continued to make more items until the pattern was discontinued in 1993. In all, 37 different pieces were produced.
