Westmoreland Levay Purple Slag Carnival Glass Duck Covered Dish 1978
$ 52.28
Description
This Purple Slag Carnival Oval Duck Covered Dish was made by Westmoreland Glass as a private production for the Levay Distributing Co. located in Edwardsville, IL in 1978. This piece has a Westmoreland factory foil sticker and a ware tag - see photos. All of the purple slag carnival items made for Levay were made in very limited quantities making this piece quite rare. The mould number is OD-1 and the base measures about 8" across with both the top and bottom being marked with the factory WG logo. Westmoreland did not make any slag carnival items for their catalog items. No damage found. Please Note: This is the actual piece photographed for the book we wrote: Slag & Marble Glass, The Prominent Years, 1959-1985 (N. Taves & D. Jennings) on page 92. Combined shipping may not be possible on this piece. Inv. #1508
5 Star seller!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow! This is probably thee most impressive packaging job I’ve ever seen. Both pieces wrapped separately in bubble wrap, then placed in separate boxes, then a layer of bubble wrap abound those boxes, inside of another box! IMPRESSIVE! Needless to say, my glass item arrived in pristine condition! Exactly as described/shown but even more beautiful in person. This piece is stunning! Very happy to add this to my collection and to add this seller to my list of favorites.❤️
Can’t say enough good things about this seller! Items were exactly as described and even more stunning in person. Items shipped very quickly after purchase was made. My husband and I had both made purchases from the same shop within minutes of each other without knowing 😆 The seller noticed our address was the same, so they combined our shipping together and sent both items in the same box which I was very pleased with!! Packaging was incredible! Will definitely be purchasing from them again!
While this dog is really “Aruba” slag and not “Fantasia,” the misnomer is easily forgiven. It’s an outstanding piece of Aruba slag, with tons of “iron,” and the blue glass glows brilliantly under 365 nm UV light. Better than shown in the pictures! He was packed extremely well for protection in shipping, and arrived without a scratch. Shipping was FAST and at a very reasonable cost. Uber friendly seller, great communication. Price was good; I wouldn’t hesitate to shop here again!
