    Trying to get some info on this little dish. It's milk glass with fire around the edge. At first I thought it was a spoon rest so I tossed it in my pile at the local thrift shop. Instead, when I got it home the more I look at it the more I think it may be a hair pin tray from a dresser set maybe? It's about 4" x 3 1/2". Fits in the palm of my hand. I'd love to know if anyone has seen anything similar and who may have made it.

      That is quite unique. Not likely to find out who made it unless our Glass Guru, TallCakes, happens by and recognizes it. :-))))

      Thanks. I thought so too. I wondered if it were part of a set. My parents were antiques dealers so I was fairly sure I was on to something. Honestly I like Pansy's so it wasn't a stretch to buy it. I think it cost all of 3.50. lol. I'm just curious as to its use. And the fact that I can't find any similar pics online regardless of how I google it makes me more determined to figure it out. Now I'm just nosey :).
