Vintage Amber Tiara Sandwich Glass Dinner Plates 10 1/4" Set of 4
Tiara's Sandwich pattern began as the focal point of the entire line. It was originally introduced in the 1970 catalog in Ruby.
A limited selection of items was available at the time. Since then Golden Amber, Crystal, Bicentennial Blue, Chantilly Green,
Peach, Spruce and Plum have been offered, keeping pace with the ever changing palettes in home decorating.
Sandwich Glass originated at the Boston and Sandwich Glass Company in Sandwich, Massachusetts.
Deming Jarvis had his intricate, lacy designs hand-cut into iron molds, and by utilizing his original hand-pressing process,
began manufacturing the first hand-pressed glass ever made in 1825.
Nearly 150 years later, Tiara Exclusives, with molds designed by the Indiana Glass Company in the 1920's, introduced its line of sparkling Sandwich. Among that group of 1920's molds were many popular items including: the Tumbler, Goblet, Vegetable Bowl,
Snack Set and the basic Starter set which included Dinner Plates, Salad Plates, Saucers, and Cups.
The hand molds have been replaced with machine sets and new ones added to accommodate the growing
demand for this nostalgic pattern.
