Manhattan Streamline Glass Dinnerware Service for Eight with 86 pieces
Manhattan Streamline Glass Dinnerware Service for Eight with 86 pieces
An extraordinary and complete collection of 86 original “Manhattan” Depression Glass pieces by Anchor Hocking, dating to 1938.
The Manhattan pattern is one of the most striking and architecturally inspired designs of the Depression era. With its bold concentric rings and dramatic geometric form, it reflects the Art Deco optimism of late-1930s America while maintaining a timeless, sculptural elegance. Unlike many more delicate Depression glass patterns, Manhattan is substantial in weight and presence — designed to be both beautiful and practical.
This collection includes an extensive array of serving pieces, dinnerware, and accessories, offering the opportunity to own not just a sampling, but a truly cohesive presentation set. From plates and bowls to handled dishes, stemware, and complementary accessories, the scale of this grouping makes it ideal for collectors, or anyone seeking to create a historically rich and visually stunning table.
About the Pattern
Introduced in 1938 by the Anchor Hocking Glass Company, the Manhattan pattern is characterized by its distinctive circular “target” motif — concentric rings pressed into crystal-clear glass. The design captures the sleek, modernist spirit of the Art Deco period and remains one of the most recognizable and sought-after Depression glass patterns today.
