🖤 Prismatic shimmer with sculptural poise—this iridescent pressed-glass vase is Federal Glass’s Yorktown pattern, defined by pillowed thumbprints and a flared, scalloped rim. Made in the mid-century (1950s–60s), the smoke-grey body flashes rainbow hues that style beautifully with seasonal stems or as a standalone art glass accent. A weighty, display-ready piece for sideboard, mantle, or centre table.
In excellent vintage/used condition. Please see all of the photos. đź–¤
⌛History Behind The Piece⌛
Founded in Columbus, Ohio (1900–1979), Federal Glass produced durable pressed glass for the modern home; Yorktown (also called Colonial) features a repeating oval “thumbprint” motif and was offered in clear, coloured, and iridescent finishes in the 1960s. Reference sources date Yorktown to the mid-1950s–1960s period, aligning with American carnival-finish revivals of the era.
