On February 1, 1876, Julius Proeger patented a design for a bird-shaped relish dish which the factory produced in crystal, amber, blue, opal, and a pale pink glass simulating opaline. The tail of the bird made a convenient handle for the dish. The design patent was assigned to Robert Herningray of Covington, Kentucky, As you can see form the picture these dishes come in colors! (about 17 colors if you count all the shades!) To see a bigger picture click on one of the birds below!
