Please note that the Imperial reeded pattern has a larger reed on every tenth incidence. The pattern is from the mid 1930s. Colors produced in the 30s were stiegel green, crystal, ritz blue, amber, and tangerine. Some crystal pitchers had colored handles. In the 50s and 60s crystal pieces were made and then completely covered with gold which was called the midas treatment. Other new colors introduced were mustard, turquoise, smoke and black.

In the 1930s a complete luncheon service could be found as well as console sets, and vanity sets. Barware was added in the 50 and 60s.
