Clear glass saucer with scalloped edges, likely by Fortecrisa or similar manufacturer
History
This type of scalloped-edge pressed glass saucer was mass-produced in the mid-to-late 20th century, primarily in Mexico and France by manufacturers like Fortecrisa and Duralex. These pieces were part of everyday dinnerware sets featuring ribbed or fluted patterns that became popular in the 1960s through 1980s. The scalloped design added visual interest while remaining practical for daily use. Such glassware appeals to vintage kitchenware collectors and those seeking retro dining aesthetics. These pieces are valued for their durability, nostalgic charm, and the growing interest in mid-century modern and vintage tableware. Collectors of Mexican or French glassware particularly appreciate these items for their quality craftsmanship and historical significance as examples of mass-produced domestic glass from the era.
