Vintage Cobalt Glass Tray

This fabulous cobalt blue glass tray was given as a representatives award for selling Avons Moonwind cologne successfully. It came out in campaign 19 in 1971. For Moonwind Perfume. Stock Code #0586.
Decorated with a silvery image of the Goddess Diana and herborzoi in the center of the tray. Many times, this image gets worn away and can only been seen as a ghost image when held at a certain angle. The tray measures 12" x 9" and the glass is almost 1/4" thick. It has a blue glass handle on each side trimmed in silvertone. On the base are four feet, these should still be covered with their original protective rubber coatings. Sometimes, one can find the original box intact.
My grandmother sold Avon in the late 1960s up until the early 1980s, and she gave the vanity tray to my mother, she cherished this for many years, even when the Diana image faded away. She originally told me about the Avon history of the tray when we saw another one at an antique store, with a price tag of $125, and a claim that it was from the 1920s and was a rare Art Deco piece. She chuckled and said, well people dont know everything
Over the years on okay, I have seen this tray mistakenly sold as antique, 1920s and art deco. These sellers were unaware that this was a special piece by Avon. Hopefully people will see this guide and know the true facts of this tray. Some Evening in Paris collectors could use this tray to display the bottles beautifully as the colors are nearly identical.
