Vintage L.G. Wright pressed glass canoe bowl in vibrant blue Daisy & Button pattern. Measures approx. 10–11 inches long, perfect as a centerpiece, candy dish, or collector’s display. Excellent example of mid-century American pressed glass.
This striking canoe-shaped bowl was produced by L.G. Wright Glass Company, a name synonymous with high-quality American pressed and reproduction glass of the mid-20th century. The Daisy & Button pattern, first popularized in the late 1800s by companies like Adams & Co. and U.S. Glass, features a textured surface of radiating starbursts and button motifs, which capture and reflect light beautifully.
Wright reintroduced this Victorian favorite in vibrant colors during the mid-1900s, including this striking aqua blue version. The canoe form is particularly sought-after among collectors, as it was produced in smaller runs and offers a unique sculptural appeal. Its gently flared ends and scalloped rim make it not only decorative but also highly functional — often used as a centerpiece, fruit bowl, or candy dish.
Today, L.G. Wright’s pressed glass pieces are cherished by collectors of Depression Glass, Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG) reproductions, and Mid-Century Decorative Glass. The Daisy & Button blue canoe bowl represents both the nostalgia of the Victorian revival period and the timeless appeal of American glass artistry.
