    I found this at a local second hand store, it has the GI mark and the Imperial sticker. As I find glass I catalog it but I can not find it anywhere except for one listing on Ebay and it lists it as Compote Nut/Candy dish with dot pattern. It looks like hobnail to me but not sure if it is a Compote or a Nut/Candy dish. Can anyone help me please.....

    Thank you for your help,

      the shape is generally called a compote and depending on size may have other names: comport, footed bowl, footed jelly, etc. If it has the superimposed 'IG' mark it was made between 1951-1972. Imperial Glass first called the pattern 'Early American Hobnail' and their pattern line #741/742.
