Vintage Indiana Glass Diamond Point compote dish with a ruby-red rim.Indiana Glass was a significant American glassware manufacturer, known for producing a wide range of pressed glass items from the early 20th century until its closure in the 1990s. The company was particularly recognized for its innovative designs and cost-effective, mass-produced glassware that catered to the tastes of middle-class consumers. Their 'Diamond Point' pattern, introduced in the mid-20th century, became one of their incredibly popular and enduring designs. This pattern is characterized by its raised diamond-shaped facets that create a sparkling, textured surface.

These pieces were often used for serving candies, desserts, or as decorative items in homes across America.
