2 CAMBRIDGE CAPRICE PISTACHIO WATER 8oz1937-1943
STEM #300, PISTACHIO YELLOW/GREEN
In 1938, the Cambridge Glass Company introduced Pistachio for the first time. Pistachio was produced during two time periods – 1938 to 1943 and 1955 to 1958 – and glassware produced during the two periods is sometimes referred to
as "Early" Pistachio and "Reopen" Pistachio (indicating the glass was produced after the reopening of the Cambridge Glass Company in 1955). The items produced in Pistachio are rather limited compared to other Cambridge colors of that time period. Early Pistachio was most common in the Caprice line, and all #300 blown Caprice stemware blanks were produced in Early Pistachio, as well as the cup & saucer, salad plate, dessert plate, 11½" service plate, medium size creamer & sugar. A few additional Caprice items were produced. Pistachio was also one of the colors used in the Varitone drink ware sets; therefore, many of the Early Pistachio pieces are drinking vessels.
In 1955, "Reopen" Pistachio was introduced. Because Cambridge was producing a much more limited number of items during the reopened period, those items produced in "Reopen" Pistachio are quite easily identified, including the 3011 short-stemmed nude comport and the #1528 vase. "Reopen" Pistachio is slightly darker than its earlier version and, if not frequently washed, the glass acquires a foggy cast. All items with the crackled treatment are "Reopen" Pistachio.
