This lot features three distinct pieces of vintage American pressed glass, likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. The first item is a novelty container in the form of a horse-drawn cart or wagon. The clear glass figure features a stylized horse harnessed to a rectangular two-wheeled cart with vertical ribbing and detailed spoked wheels. The second item is a specialized rectangular match tray. The base is embossed with the inscription BURNT MATCHES set above a radiating sunburst motif. The tray includes a raised central rectangular plinth with scalloped edges. This piece exhibits a faint amethyst or purple tint, characteristic of solarized glass where manganese was used as a decolorizer. The third item is an ornate arched glass crest or pediment, possibly an architectural element from a clock or furniture piece. It features elaborate pressed geometric patterns including stars and fans with serrated edges. This piece retains its original metal mounting hardware with two bolts.
