  • A tall flared stem with a fluted crown 
  • A wide ruffled plate with gorgeous fold movement 
  • A sturdy, rounded base that gives it presence 
  • And that unmistakable creamy custard glass 

This is the kind of vintage design that takes zero effort to style — it just owns any space you put it in.

💛 Why This Color Is Special

Custard glass doesn’t shout — it simply glows from within, with steady creamy warmth It has a creamy, buttery tone that softens light and gives any room a warm, nostalgic feel. Collectors love custard glass because:  

  • It works with farmhouse, cottage, maximalist, and modern décor 
  • It plays well with color 
  • It looks expensive, even when it isn’t 
  • And it’s getting harder to find in great condition 

Ruffled pieces in this color have a particularly timeless, romantic quality.
