Happy 25th Anniversary - Silver Decorated Glass - Silver City's Springtime

Wouldn't this make an outstanding gift for your 25th wedding anniversary? It is a torte plate that would be perfect to hold cake or sandwiches or canapes at a party.
The glass itself is Caprice by Cambridge, easily told by the looped optic design and scalloped shape. The silver design, with its lavish blossoms and leaf sprays, is by Silver City. It is called Springtime, just a perfect name.
The banner reads 25th Anniversary. Silver City was one of several companies that decorated glass with silver and sometimes gold. Silver City, like Lotus Glass and others, purchased glass blanks from other companies and decorated for the gift ware market. This is a perfect example!
