Vintage Avon 1876 Cape Cod Collection
The Avon 1876 Cape Cod Collection, produced by Wheaton Glass Co. for Avon from 1975 to 1992, with the final pieces sold in 1995, drew its design inspiration from the classic “Roman Rosette” pattern. This pattern dates back to the Boston and Sandwich Glass Works, established in 1825 in Cape Cod, MA. The '1876' in the collection's name commemorates the centennial of the Declaration of Independence signing and the Philadelphia Centennial of 1876. The collection's intricate lacy design, fine background stippling, and vibrant ruby red color contribute to its desirability among collectors.
This exquisite ruby-red glassware will beautifully complement your table with festive, classic charm, making it ideal for family gatherings and holiday entertaining. A timeless color for Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Independence Day, and many other celebrations, it brings warmth and cheer to any occasion.
