Not sure what this is. It is pink glass, but I don't think it is depression because the dish is etched with dragons. Anyone have any idea who made it or when it was made? Measures 9" across. Thanks David
many of these CHS (center handle servers) are identifiable by the shape of the handle. If you could add a side profile image of the handle that might help. Does look to be Elegant Glass of the depression era.
the added image also shows the ribs not visible in the first shot. This would be New Martinsville #34 Addie, c. 1930s-1950s; AKA: Twelve Points; made in various colors of glass over the years of production. The etch is called (by some collectors) Lions; the etch pattern may also sometimes be called griffins or dragons. This same handle was used on many other New Martinsville servers throughout the years.

Hi TallCakes, mine has the Lion etch. Does that make a difference?
New Martinsville would have put various etches on the same pattern. The Lion etch is attributed to New Martinsville
And the dish is exactly like the pink one - more like a shallow bowl.
