This is a rare flint glass salt in an opaque white glass salt with some fiery opalescence in the glass. This rare salt is marked "N.E. GLASS CO. BOSTON", on the base. This marked open salt dish of the New England Glass Company is a box-shaped, oblong, hexagonal salt, that flares slightly and has corner columns and small knob feet. The panels of the sides are decorated with baskets of fruit in relief and the end panels with a raised rose spray. There is one flower in full bloom, a bud to the right, two rose leaves, and a delicate branching stem. On the base, in an irregular oval-shaped recessed panel, is the four-line inscription, "N. E. Glass Company Boston," in raised letters not too clearly cut. In his book, Salt Dishes, C. W. Brown states that this salt dish, which occurs in clear and opalescent-white glass, was made in three different molds with minor variations. This example is in As Found condition with a short hairline crack off the rim with some separation at the top. This example is Neal NE-1 and it is listed as very rare, especially in this color!
