yes, definitely Desert Rose.
by the way, I was just antiquing in the locals, and noticed a set of Desert Rose. , to give you an idea of the market here, the 14" platter was selling for 65.00. You can kind of judge the value from that.
The value of these depends on the backstamp, the depth of the pattern and whether it was made in the US or England. The US ones are worth more, as well as those with earlier backstamps.
Beth, this is great to know. Glass is not my thing altho Im still learning and appreciate so much of it. Thanks.
