Vintage Anchor Hocking Royal Ruby Manhattan Relish Tray Set with Coordinating Plate – 1938–1943 Depression Glass

A sculptural ruby red ensemble with Deco rhythm and Depression-era charm. This vintage set includes five rounded triangular relish trays from Anchor Hocking’s Manhattan line, crafted between 1938 and 1943 in their coveted Royal Ruby glass. Each tray features concentric ribbing and a bold silhouette—designed to nestle around a coordinating 8½" round plate, which, while unsigned, complements the set with striking symmetry and color match.
The Manhattan pattern is known for its modernist appeal and tactile ribbed edges—a favorite among collectors who appreciate its weight, durability, and sculptural presence. While the plate may not be part of the original Manhattan line, it offers a beautiful visual anchor for styling or serving.
