Vintage Avon Cape Cod Ruby Red Glass Footed Compote Candy Dish Candle Holder

Vintage Avon Cape Cod Ruby Red Glass Footed Compote Candy Dish Candle Holder 3.5" inches

(Cast Mold #1 Single Replacement Piece)

​Bring home an iconic piece of American glassmaking history with this authentic Avon 1876 Cape Cod Collection sugar bowl base (lid not included).

​Originally produced to celebrate the US Bicentennial, this charming piece captures the full beauty of Victorian-era pressed glass. It features a squatter, bowl-like silhouette with a widely flared, decorative fluted rim designed to set it apart from standard drinkware. The deep ruby red color catches light wonderfully across every angle of its intricate diamond-point relief.

While missing its original glass lid, this piece serves beautifully on its own as an open sugar dish, a cozy votive/tea light holder, a trinket dish, or a vibrant standalone addition to a ruby glass collection.
