OMG! I have one of these lol! Mine is white milk glass, it was my mother’s when she was a newlywed and she gave it to me for my kitchen. Initially, they were used for casseroles and side dishes but these days, they are really just used as decoration and display.

They are covered casserole dishes…for more on the history etc see here

I was waiting for your reply, seriously. I knew you could help me with this.

Many Thanks
