- sought after, desireable color for this Akro Agate child's teaset pattern! in beautiful condition! a premier piece for your Akro collection! inspired by the architectural themes of the Art Deco movement, AKRO cleverly used two patterns to create a pleasing effect with this Depression Glass pattern: the vertical Interior Panel Pattern on the inside contrast the horizontal concentric rings of the Stacked Disc Pattern on the outside - and both patterns are appropriately keyed together with the classic Deco embellishment, the Graduated Dart Pattern! and if this isn't enough Akro pattern for you, this pattern is also interchangeable with Akro's Concentric Ring Pattern!
