Covered glass compotes always make a lovely item to display in a china cabinet. In addition, they can grace any dining room table for any festive or formal event. Such an attractive piece of antique glass can also make a beautiful wedding gift.

From research of various glass pieces, we are led to believe that this beautiful glass compote is quite possibly of Heisey manufacture. As we already know, Heisey Glass is renowned for its clarity and crystal-like appearance of their blanks. Not all Heisey pieces were signed.
