Ruba Rombic: American Art Deco

To collectors, the Ruba Rombic pattern, made in 1927 by Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company, is synonymous with art deco. Pieces look like jumbled rectangles joined together. The pattern was difficult to mold, limiting production. Today even a tumbler sells for hundreds of dollars. Photo: Sotheby’s Lavender 9 1/2-inch Ruba Rombic vase
