    One of the few things I asked for from my mothers estate. I've always loved this dish. No one know where she got it. I have a picture of her sitting at the dining room table and this dish is on shelf in the china cabinet behind her. Any help identifying would be great. I've looked for the last couple of years and haven't found a match.
    Measures 7 inches across and 10 inches tall. Three footed. I think its pressed glass.
    The more pictures I take the more positive I am that its pressed glass, even looking at it with the eye the edges aren't crisp so it looks blurry in every photo.

      Very pretty, however, the photo is a bit unclear, and more photos would help with identification.

      Hofbauer crystal candy dish, 1960s

      Overview:
      A lead crystal pressed glass candy dish, produced by Hofbauber Kristall in the 1960s or later. In mold blown and red stained glass.
      An estimate would be $ 30-40 USD

      Background:
      Karl Hofbauer startet his business in Altenstadt in 1925. Soon after the war in 1946 the company launched the production of pressed lead crystal. In 1995 Hofbauer Kristall had to close its doors.
