Anchor Hocking · Kitchenware > Glassware & Serving Pieces
Era / Decade
1960s–1980s (Production ran roughly 1967-1998; the diamond-and-star pattern is a hallmark of this era)
Material
Pressed Glass (Soda-lime glass). Heavyweight construction with high-clarity 'crystal-look' finish.
Condition
Good to Very Good. Based on the photo, there are no obvious large chips or cracks, but pressed glass of this era often has 'flea bites' (tiny chips) on the rim facets or 'utensil marks' (scratches) in the basin.
Demand Level
Moderate to Strong. The individual deviled egg plate is 'Hot' around Easter and Thanksgiving; the punch bowl is 'Strong' during graduation and wedding seasons.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
Low: $25.00 | Mid: $45.00 | High: $65.00 (Value is mostly in the punch bowl and deviled egg plate; glass is heavy/expensive to ship)
Estimated Retail Value
$60.00 - $80.00 (Estimated original adjusted cost for a full set of these large heavy serving pieces)
Comparable Sales
The Wexford Deviled Egg Plate typically sells for $18-$24 on eBay. A full Punch Bowl set with base sold for $35-$50. The relish tray averages $10-$15.
Description
Authentic Anchor Hocking Wexford pattern serving set featuring a brilliant diamond-quilt design. Includes a large footed punch bowl, matching underplate, a 12-slot scalloped deviled egg tray, and a divided relish dish. This set captures the mid-century hostess aesthetic perfectly and is heavy, durable, and highly reflective under light.
Key Features
Wexford is a highly recognizable and popular pattern among vintage glass collectors. The deviled egg plate is a high-demand item on its own. The pieces are classic and versatile for holiday hosting and weddings.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The 'Wexford' pattern is distinct with its alternating diamond sizes and starburst base. Anchor Hocking pieces from this era rarely had logos; the pattern itself is the identifier.
Flaws to Note
Potential for small chips on the 'points' of the diamond pattern and the scalloped edges. The punch bowl may lack the original plastic ladle. Glass may show 'clouding' if washed frequently in a dishwasher (though these appear clear).
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace or local consignment is best for the punch bowl due to weight/shipping risk. Etsy or eBay is best for the deviled egg plate and relish tray where collectors look for specific replacements.
Selling Tips
Break the set up! Selling the deviled egg plate separately often nets $15–$25 on its own. The punch bowl is high-risk for shipping; list it locally for $20-$30. Use keywords like 'Vintage Mid-Century Glassware,' 'Diamond Point,' and 'Hostess Gift.'
