What is Depression Glass?
Depression glass was produced in the United States during the Great Depression (1929–1939) and into the 1940s. In a time of economic hardship, companies such as Hazel-Atlas, Federal Glass, and Jeannette made affordable glassware in cheerful colors to brighten homes. Often sold for just a few cents or given away in cereal boxes, flour sacks, or as movie theater premiums, Depression glass became a staple in American households.
Pink glass was among the most popular and enduring colors. For families struggling in difficult times, its warmth and charm provided a small but meaningful sense of joy and optimism. Today, it remains one of the most collectible Depression glass colors, sought after for both its aesthetic appeal and its historical significance.
