Hello All
I inherited these lovely champagne glasses from my Grandfather.
An appraiser told me they were Fostoria "Rose" pattern, circa 1950.
I looked up that pattern, and actually, many other Rose pattern etched glasses. They are not Fostoria. The heavy etching on the bowl and the lovely rose stem etched down the glass stem to the base is unique to anything I have found.
Would anyone out there happen to know what period these glasses are from?
The cabinet held many pieces of APB cut glass with etching, but nothing like these.
With hope someone knows,
Thank you
Cathy
you are correct, not Fostoria. The etch is Morgantown #734 American Beauty; not sure about the stem but maybe the Astrid champagne:

DEAR Tall Cakes!
You are wonderful and seem to be pretty brilliant!
Thankyouthankyouthankyou.
Cathy
you're very welcome : ) that's a very nice set!
You can always recognize American Beauty Rose by the long stem with thorns that extends downward onto the stem of most stemware pieces. Even serving and decorative pieces have a long thorny stem!
Best regards,
Michael
