From The Scarborough-Linebery Collection:
Brilliance in Glass
Glass objects in this gallery were produced during the mid-twentieth century, between 1945 and 1980, and were collected by Mrs. Kara Scarborough and her daughter Mrs. Evelyn Scarborough Linebery.
This period was marked by artistic experimentation and renewed optimism following World War II. Designers of this era sought to create objects that were both functional and expressive, reflecting the belief that well-designed everyday items could enhance modern life.
Today, mid-century glass is highly collectible due to its craftsmanship, historical importance, and timeless design.
