Imperial Glass Caramel Slag Basket 5" Chevron Herringbone Milk Glass Handle 1960s (0114-24)

No two pieces of slag glass are identical — and this one is a showstopper. Imperial Glass produced their caramel slag line from the early 1950s through the early 1970s, and this footed handled basket is one of the most sought-after forms they made. The swirling caramel, chocolate brown, and cream glass was created by blending opaque milk glass with colored glass during pressing — a process that guarantees every piece is unrepeatable. This example has a particularly rich, deep swirl pattern. The chevron-paneled exterior and smooth interior bowl are classic Imperial workmanship; the separately applied white milk glass handle, finished with a small daisy detail at each attachment point, elevates it from decorative to heirloom. - Material: Pressed caramel slag glass — brown, chocolate, and white swirl — with applied milk glass handle - Pattern: Chevron (Herringbone) paneled exterior, smooth interior - Maker: Imperial Glass Company, Bellaire, Ohio — marked with embossed intertwined IG trademark on base, c.1951–1973 - Dimensions: Height 5" (with handle) | Width 4.5" | Length 5.25" | Weight: 13 oz - Condition: Excellent.

IMPORTANT NOTE: At Darling Della Vintage, we believe every scratch and bit of patina tells a story. Our pieces are 30+ years old and have lived full lives, so gentle wear, tiny chips, or age-worn charm are part of their soul — not flaws. We photograph and describe each item carefully, but please expect natural signs of age. Embracing vintage means embracing history — and we wouldn't have it any other way. Please visit my shop for additional unique and exceptional vintage items.
