Lacy, delicate appearing swirls of scrolls and flowers were pattern motifs from the Boston & Sandwich Glass Company from the 1820s until 1888. While little glass from this era survives today, the spirit lives on in glass made from the 1930s through 1980s by companies such as Duncan Miller, Anchor Hocking and Indiana Glass. These companies acknowledged the Boston Sandwich company by calling patterns with similar motifs Sandwich glass.

With the number of patterns, all called Sandwich, how can the collector tell them apart? Here are a few easy tips.

The flowers on Anchor Hocking’s Sandwich pattern are the only ones with double lines around the flower petals. In fact, a customer told me this was called “Double Sandwich”. It’s an easy way to remember! The scrolls are more scrunched together than other patterns, but unless you have others to compare, just remember the double lines. Hocking made Sandwich in crystal, Ruby Red and Forest Green, and you can find some pieces in amber, white and pink.

Indiana’s Sandwich comes in many colors because Indiana sold it in a rainbow of colors through their Tiara party plan in the 1970s and 1980s. Tiara’s Sandwich was mostly the same pattern that Indiana sold originally in the late 1920s and 1930s. Indiana’s Sandwich is pretty, with graceful long scrolls between simple flowers. The scrolls do not touch in the middle. It’s probably easiest to tell Indiana by deciding it is not Anchor Hocking or Duncan Miller.

Duncan Miller’s Early American Sandwich glass is the best made and highest quality glass of these three. It was a long-running staple of Duncan Miller until 1955 and was made in a full table service plus fascinating incidental pieces such as baskets and epergnes. To identify Duncan’s glass, look where the scrolls come together. If there is a horizontal diamond connecting the scrolls, it is Duncan’s Sandwich. A similar pattern is Princess Feather from Westmoreland, which has an oval connector instead of a diamond.
