BEADED GRAPE MEDALLION (AKA) by Boston Silver Glass Company/Boston-MA (Company Operated: 1857-1871), 1869 Introduced

NOTE: Sid Lethbridge: Often attributed to Boston Silver Glass Co. based on oval dishes in this pattern that are marked with a patent date of May 11, 1869. This was a patent obtained by Alonzo Young for a mould to press oval dishes that he assigned to this firm. It is also quite possible that the patent was licensed to other firms such as Adams & Co.
