Description
Note: Will take some better photos when it’s light This charming hobnail milk glass vase has been in my family for generations. It sat on my grandmother’s vanity since at least the 1930s, so it’s very likely an authentic Depression-era piece. My mom adored its soft, beachy glow and kept it with her seaside collection of coral and shells — it always caught the light just right. The glass is beautifully opalescent, shifting from a milky white to a pearly blue depending on the light. The raised hobnail texture feels substantial and hand-finished, not the thin or mass-produced kind you see later on. It’s thick, sturdy, and made to last — the kind of piece that feels both nostalgic and quietly elegant. Perfect for displaying a few fresh flowers, as a vanity accent, or as part of a vintage glass collection. It brings a gentle shimmer and timeless charm to any space — coastal, cottagecore, or classic vintage. 🩵 Excellent condition — no chips or cracks 🩵 Approx. 5.5” tall 🩵 Likely Fenton or early American glass, circa 1930s 🩵 Authentic opalescent hobnail milk glass Asking $70 A beautiful piece of early 20th-century glass with real history and warmth ~ perfect for anyone who loves vintage elegance with a story.
