  1. the set is called a tumble-up or night set or bedside water set; the tumbler fits upside-down over the decanter/carafe. Looks like possibly Bohemian to me. Here is similar with different cut: http://...
  2. very nice lamp : ) other search terms that might help are: arts and crafts reticulated slag glass lamp
  3. notice that the beaded edge tray base is a bit translucent, whereas the hobnail body is opaque. This is most likely a dime store product from the 1960s-70s. Different companies bought the glass from v...
  4. this is Indiana Glass #170 Sandwich pattern first introduced in crystal around 1925; IG's interpretation of early sandwich glass. Several companies have their own sandwich glass patterns that are very...
  5. there are many reference books on glass depending on one's field of interest. My main interest is EAPG cake stands. It's just that I've been studying and following glass for many years and this is a f...
  6. yes it is milk glass and the Yorktown pattern by Federal Glass. Vaseline glass is a name given to canary yellow glass that glow bright green under black light.
  7. it's a 'Lace Edge' footed candy box in milk glass with lid by Indiana Glass
  8. check same catalog page 6 http://fentonfan.com/catalog/1961january/1961january.swf
  9. 3880 Fenton candy jar from same catalog on page 6 http://fentonfan.com/catalog/1961january/1961january.swf
  10. it the jelly/jam jar from a Fenton 3903 Jam Set. Check page 7 of this catalog: http://fentonfan.com/catalog/1961january/1961january.swf
  11. tetrahedron framed glass hanger for air ferns or other plants not requiring watering; that my guess. The hooks are for hanging. Here is a link of similar items: http://www.amyburgessjewelry.com/glass...
  12. from what I can tell these are candle holders. pattern looks like maybe waffle block motif. it does help to have in focus images
  13. it's Diamond Point by Indiana Glass and as you say was made in many colors of glass. These were sold with and without lids.
  14. The pattern is "Roman Cross" by Challinor, Taylor & Co. c. 1890s. Does look like an EAPG honey dish to me but is listed at this link as a covered butter: http://www.cowanauctions.com/auctions/item.as...
  15. I thought it looked pretty close. Like you, not sure about the Murano attribution; you could write the seller and ask if they are certain of Murano and if the stopper is original, and they might have ...
  16. another: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Murano-Art-Glass-Perfume-Bottle-Scent-Decanter-Crystal-Clear-/190835848820
  17. another similar: http://www.etsy.com/listing/95758011/vintage-art-deco-perfume-bottle-bubble
  18. there is a stopper matching the one on the bottle at RL listed on eBay: # 161000045283 might check the size
  19. sorry, only ran across one similar bottle on RL listed as Large Art Deco Perfume Bottle
  20. searching Beaded Medallion Perfume Bottle turns up several at various online shops
  21. I think this is a match for the stopper: http://ogdenlane.com/product/brilliant-glass512/beaded-medallion/#!prettyPhoto
  22. definitely a marriage. From the faint mark the cruet is Anchor Hocking; try a search for: Anchor Hocking cruet 48
  23. ya know what "they" say Eye, sometimes ya get more for less : )
  24. you're very welcome. I think used the search term 'stallions compote' for this one.
  25. Sabino??? http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/16414248_extremely-rare-8-x-9-14-sabino-trophy-compote
  26. very pretty Bacchus nude stem champagne / sherbet.
  27. crimping is typically hand tooled and therefore does vary; wouldn't say that the number of crimps is necessarily indicative of age.
  28. here is a link to an uploaded image taken from Imperial catalog designated as Book "E": http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v628/tallcakes/IMG_4490.jpg if you would like to have the full image (5.9 ...
  29. looking thru the Imperial catalog I found a page of milk glass that had this vase shown; the catalog is 1914-1937. If you vase has no markings there is a good chance it is from these earlier productio...
  30. one site I found did list white as produced 1974-1976
  31. without a makers mark it's difficult to date; unfortunately not all pieces got marked.
  32. Imperial Glass #488; collectors usually call this "Poppy Show" or "Poppy Vase" tho' Imperial only gave a number in their catalog; made for many years so hard to pinpoint a date; might check completed ...
  33. Victor by Dugan Glass, c.1905; AKA: Jeweleded Heart. I'd guess these are small berry bowls. L. G. Wright had some pieces reproduced and called it Sweetheart.
  34. hard to say without seeing the pattern detail. Try posting a side profile image showing the detail on the side and shape.
  35. thanks AmberRose : ) and a big thanks for the many loves : )
  36. @ atieh3000: the pattern for this compote is called Moon and Star. M&S is a reproduction of an EAPG pattern introduced by Adams and Company around 1888; the pattern was originally called Palace. The p...
  37. from what I understand PartyLite is an in-home sales company. They don't 'make' glass or anything; just retail stuff at in-home sales parties. So, it could be that PartyLite had their Siena line made...
  38. I'd suggest comparing the design and size with those noted online. Sometimes the size/measurements may be key when patterns are very similar. It is often impossible to tell from photos alone. From wha...
  39. might compare to Gocce by Luigi Bormioli and see what you think
  40. hat form/mold???
  41. you're welcome; happy to help. It is a beautiful lamp and I'm sure a treasured family heirloom. The tree motif in the shade seems quite unique and displays beautifully with the tree trunk base.
  42. it's the Iris pattern by Jeannette Glass, c.1960s
  43. might compare the details to this one by Pilgrim Glass: http://retroartglass.com/store/item/388qq/Glass_Archives/Pilgrim_blown_glass_barometer_with_label.html
  44. you're welcome and thank you : )
  45. barometer
  46. this Hubbell link may help date the socket fixture: http://antiquesockets.com/hubbell.html
  47. if you're interested in repairing you can get epoxy at most any hardware store or online here: http://www.tindellsrestorationschools.com/RestorationProducts_Process.cfm?Products=71 Tindell's has don...
  48. sometimes the glue does look like a thin disk when the pieces separate; the glue often yellows as well. It's not too hard to epoxy the platter and pedestal back together with epoxy; just be sure to be...
  49. the cake stand is currently being offered by Godinger in 24% lead crystal and called Radiance.
  50. it's Fostoria Glass in their "American" pattern that was made for an extended period of time from 1898 to 1980s when Fostoria went out of business. You might check it with a black light as some of the...
