A vintage 1970s Avon Victorian Rose mint green milk glass pitcher.
Avon is widely known for its fragrance and cosmetics, but the company also became famous for its promotional glassware. Starting in the mid-20th century, Avon distributed a vast array of collectible glass pieces to encourage customers to purchase their beauty products.
These pieces often drew inspiration from historical styles, such as the Victorian era, resulting in the ornate floral patterns and ruffled edges seen here. The 'Jadeite' or pale green milk glass was a particularly popular color choice during the 1970s. While charming, these items were produced in massive quantities, making them common finds in vintage markets today.
