This box was used in the colored Boudoir Sets of the 1920’s.  It had a short life span as a Confection and Cover, as they were only produced in three colors –  Amber, Blue, or Canary.  These are not common items, and worthy of special attention.  When this same box was produced in clear crystal, it enjoyed a much longer life as the Handkerchief Box & Cover.  Therefore, a Confection and Cover = a box in Amber, Blue, or Canary.  A Handkerchief Box & Cover = a box in clear crystal. The colored Boudoir Sets of 1925-1926 included the following items:

Protecting your American Glassware

Storage Boxes

To help prevent damage to our beloved American items, and to allow for easy identification, I like to use storage boxes.  A variety of boxes are available, and some of them have windows which will allow you to quickly see the contents of the box.  I also like identify each box with the item’s identification number.  I no longer have to worry about the safety of my glassware.  They are easy to access, and the attractive boxes keep my pantry very organized!  ♥
