Mosser Glass Jade Milk Glass Cake Stand

Description

The Mosser Glass cake stand in jade is an elegant way to display cakes, cupcakes and pastries. Each stand is one piece of glass – not a plate and stem stuck together – so you can be confident that your cake stand will last for years to come.

The jade glass cake stands are available in 3 sizes:

  • 6” (15cm) dia / height 14cm
  • 10” (25cm) dia / height 20cm
  • 12” (30cm) / height 22cm

For the ultimate cake display, pair your cake stand with a Mosser Glass cake dome.

Jadeite,  or  jadite,  glass  was  immensely  popular  in  America  in  the  1930s.  It was first  created  to  add  a  bit  of  colour  and  cheer  to  people’s  home  after  the  First  World  War. Today, the pale green milk glass is  a  favourite  with  collectors  all  over  the  world.

Mosser Glass are a family owned and run company from Ohio. They’ve been hand-pressing high-quality glassware since 1971. Their collection evokes a vintage feel with coloured milk glass and intricate moulded designs. Sturdy enough to see service every day, Mosser Glass pieces are designed to be used and loved for generations.

The coloured glass is made by mixing pigments with soda ash and silica sand. Once melted, the molten glass is hand-poured into cast iron moulds. When released from the moulds, air is blown over the new piece of glassware to help it cool. Then the glass is quickly rotated while it's sanded, polished and fired to give a glossy finish all over. This manufacturing process can cause 'stripes' in the pigmentation of the glass, and makes every piece of Mosser Glass unique.

Care instructions

Clean your Mosser Glass cake stand with mild detergent and a non-abrasive sponge. If cleaning in the dishwasher, make sure it will not rattle against other items. Avoid strong shocks of any kind – thermal or physical – as these can cause weak points in the glass. Do not stack cake stands in storage.
