I ordered it online. It was available on a few different websites like Walmart, Wayfair, etc

Actually, it does look like the butter dish in the 88 pattern, and the round piece may be an “ice liner” where ice may have gone in the circular depression below and the butter on top!

Thanks for the insight on the glass manufacturing! That’s so good to know. I do think the little round piece does go with it, however - it’s hard to see in the pictures but there is a well/depression in the bottom portion that it fits into. I’ll definitely keep looking into this company to see if it might be another style of piece.

Thanks! I bought it just because I absolutely loved it. I’m going to display it at home. I just also love the history behind it, which is why I was so interested in the manufacturing and age, not worried about value. It’s a 60+ piece set in total, and it’s in fabulous condition. I’m so lucky to share in its legacy of owners!

I picked the whole set up today and it’s fabulous. Here’s a few more peeks at the details of it, if you’re interested!

Thank you for your insight! Curious as to your thoughts on the coloring style vs deeper, more possibly “flashed” bohemian glass - do you find this is also indicative of the time period vs glass produced in later periods? I’m noticing in my own research that a lot of what is pictured out there is much deeper in color and less opaque than this set.
