Antique Manganese Glass Punch Bowl Set w/ Stand – 12 Cups – Early 20th Century

Beautiful early 20th-century American pressed glass punch bowl set featuring a large punch bowl, matching stand, and 12 cups. The glass contains manganese, which produces a soft green glow under UV light—a hallmark of pre-WWII glassmaking.

The pattern and construction are commonly attributed to L. E. Smith Glass Company or a contemporary American maker from the same era (often unmarked).

A unique feature of this set is the versatile stand: it can be used to elevate the punch bowl for serving, or the bowl can be removed and the stand used separately for hors d’oeuvres, fruit, or display.

What’s Included:

• 1 large pressed-glass punch bowl

• 12 matching punch cups

• 1 matching stand / base

Material & Era:

• Material: Pressed glass with manganese (non-radioactive)

• UV Reaction: Soft green glow under UV

• Era: Circa 1920s–1930s

This is a striking, functional antique set with real early-American glass history and visual appeal under both normal and UV light.
