Jade Fever

Saturday, November 14th, 2009

“Jadite was manufactured by many companies from the 1930’s to 1972. Jadite is occasionally referred to as “clambroth” a term also used for opaque white glass. Each company produced a slight variant either lighter or darker of jadite’s basic seafoam -green color.

Jadite was heavy, durable, inexpensive and, sometimes it was even free. It was often packaged as a giveaway in food and cleaning products. Restaurants served meals on jadite dishes, as they cost pennies to buy and had a high threshold for breakage.”
