Moderntone Platonite White by Hazel-Atlas 29 piece Set milk glass

  

Moderntone Platonite White by Hazel-Atlas 29 piece set. This highly collectible set has been well preserved and is in pristine condition. It was produced in the early 1940s with opalescence and rings of fire as indicated in the photos. During the 1940's, Hazel Atlas used the Moderntone molds to produce a platonite line of dinnerware.

Platonite is an opaque white glass that Hazel Atlas had been using in their kitchenware since the early 1930's. The earliest pieces made in this color show opalescence under a strong light, while later pieces are fully opaque. 9 Dinner/Sandwich plates 9" wide, 3/4" tall. 9 coffee/tea cups 2 3/8" tall 4" wide. 11 saucers to go with the coffee/tea cups 5 1/2" wide, 3/4" tall.

If purchasing during winter months and colder weather, please allow your items to come to room temperature before cleaning or polishing. Most vintage glass is not suitable for dish washers, this will damage or create a white cloud in your glass.
