Hello I found this years ago and am about to cook a big fish & rememberd I had this , I knew where it was luckily enough, I’ve just noticed that it is has mark of USA Glasbake 379, thought I’d post it to find out more about it, maybe someone might know.






Steptoe1, Cool. :-)
I have always liked these tree of life platters.
About Glasbake:

Unfortunately, pinning down dates seems difficult, other than to say mid-twentieth century. Glasbake pieces made after the sale to Jeannette in 1961 would have a "J" prefix on the mold number.
Other glass makers (e.g. Fire King, Pyrex) made their own variety of the tree of life platter, and there were also metal versions.
Thanks Kera great information, just had a good read and think I have some other collectible items they mentioned on worthpoint
Steptoe1, You're welcome.
I actually was a bit disappointed that I couldn't nail down the origins of this design. Apparently Fire King had been making it as early as the 1940s.
