Avon's 1876 Cape Cod Collection is reminiscent of early American Pressed glass called "Sandwich Glass." It featured lacy, intricate designes, fine background stippling and exquisite brilliance, which reflected the superb craftsmanship of its makers.

Many of the detailed designs of this prized glass were produced by the Boston & Sandwich Glass Words, founded on Cape Cod in 1825. Other companies in the region competed, but the popularity of "Sandwich" pieces resulted in the name becoming a generic term for press glass.


Inspired by the lacey delicacy of these designs, particularly the classic "Roman Rosette" patter, Avon has created this unique collection. Not only does it recall the beauty of this glass, but its name commemorates both the spirit of the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial, which celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, and the area where Sandwich glass originated."
