This 1985 Pairpoint Glass cup plate was commissioned by Barnstable County in celebration of the town of Yarmouth Massachusetts' 300th year. This nautical theme cup plate was a limited edition with only 262 cup plates pressed in the copper blue color. Handcrafted on Cape Cod using time-honored techniques, these 3.5 inch cup plates have subtle variations that highlight the artisan's skill. Each cup plate is crafted using a mold created with a hammer and chisel, and then pressed with molten glass using an antique press. This manufacturing process results in cup plates that are similar yet possess their own distinctive characteristics. Look closely and you'll find the artisan's initials and the Pairpoint trademark within the design.
