This set comprises two clear glass plates, each showcasing distinct decorative treatments executed through molded relief technique. The larger divided plate features five compartments, each adorned with intricately rendered naturalistic motifs including a fish, crab, lobster, olives, and botanical sprigs - imagery consistent with a seafood or hors d'oeuvre serving context. The second, smaller plate presents a fluid arrangement of frosted leaf forms set against a clear ground, centering on a raised ring foot, lending an Art Deco-influenced elegance. Both pieces display the characteristic play of light through clear and frosted glass surfaces that defines mid-twentieth century decorative glassware. The divided plate measures approximately 10 x 10", and the leaf-motif plate measures approximately 9 x 9". Size: 14 x 14" and smaller
