\"Cambridge<\/a>This pretty server caught our eye because of its oval shape. \u00a0Most servers I have seen are circular in pattern.<\/p>\n

Its colour is eye catching as well – a very rich amber. \u00a0This is what the Miami Valley Student Group<\/a>\u00a0(MSVG) says about Cambridge’s colour amber:<\/p>\n

“Amber was introduced January, 1924, and was sometimes advertized as “Amber-glo.” In 1930, Cambridge produced items in the “Springtime” line which later became part of the “Everglade” line. Springtime items were frosted on the pattern side of the item leaving bright highlights. When produced in Amber, Springtime items were call “Cinnamon.” In 1935, Cambridge also marketing items frosted on one surface and left “bright” on the other side. Such items made in Amber were called by the color name “Almond.”\"Cambridge<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

This piece #173 was made in a number of additional colours, with other decorations. \u00a0For more examples see the MVSG site.<\/p>\n

As an aside, don’t miss\u00a0this great site if you are interested in Cambridge.<\/p>\n

This is\u00a0Cambridge Amber Center Handled Server #173 with Etch #704. \u00a0I have read that the name “Windows”\u00a0was not a Cambridge name, but was assigned by someone else tot he etch. \u00a0I like the etch details, but can’t figure out the name.<\/p>\n

In any event, this is a very attractive piece.<\/p>\n
