Overview
A vintage rolling pin with a white milk glass barrel and two turned wooden handles. The barrel is smooth and opaque, with a rounded shoulder and a narrow raised ring at each end. The handles swell in the middle and finish in a small knob at the tip, and the wood has darkened with handling. One handle has a small metal screw through it near the barrel. It suits a farmhouse or country kitchen display, a shelf of vintage baking tools or a collection of milk glass.
Background
Glass rolling pins were sold in the United States in the early and mid 20th century as an alternative to all-wood pins. The smooth glass barrel does not absorb moisture and is easy to wipe clean. No maker's mark is visible on this one. The barrel is 9.2 inches long and the whole pin weighs just over a pound and a half.
Condition
Good vintage condition with no chips or cracks visible. A small dark mark shows on one shoulder of the barrel in one photo. The wooden handles have wear, darkening and small marks from use. Sold as a vintage collectible. Please see all photos.
Dimensions & Weight
The rolling pin is 17.5 inches long overall. The white barrel is 9.2 inches long and 2.5 inches in diameter. It weighs 1 lb 8.8 oz.
