Comments

  1. Thanks a bunch to both Greatsnowyowl and kunsthammer. Upon futher investigation with their leads, I have to agree the vase is likely by Karl Goldberg. I have now found several similar ones incl...
  2. Thank you very much for the pointer, TallCakes. I often use LiveAuctioneers as a reference, but never found this reference as I kept searching words such as "horse", etc. ... never considered Sabino...
  3. The embossed design could be the result of an acid process that left the remaining surface with a satin finish.
  4. The design looks to be slightly embossed in the glass, and then I think the silver is applied very thinly; not quite like traditional overlay.
  5. Excellent tray. It is by the Consolidated Lamp And Glass Company ... part of their "Santa Maria" line.
  6. I love this line as well. I've had a few over the years ... never the largest one, but several of the small and mid sized ones. I like the leaf bowls too.
  7. I agree with Greatsnowyowl in that it is not plated Amberina ... though we got there considering different characteristics. However, I'm not certain which company it is. I still feel New England, ...
  8. That's certainly a possibility as well. I first considered plated Amberina, but I have never seen it without a white interior. As you say, color is excellent. If it is Amberina, it looks like it ...
  9. Hard to say without seeing it in person, but I suspect you may have a piece of Webb Alexandrite. If so, you've got quite a rare find.
  10. Fred Bickenheuser released 2 paperback books in the late 70's / early 80's on Tiffin glass, and I remember one of these books showed the pitcher on the inside cover or within a few pages of the cover....
  11. Correctly attributed or not, the American attribution is typically that it was made by Tiffin (an Ohio glass firm). It is also pictured as such in some Tiffin books. I have had 2 of them myself ... ...
  12. Thanks for the posting. I saw the thumbnail picture, but the main auction listing has been removed. Very interesting indeed. I have been continuing to compare available pictures, and it seems the...
  13. Thanks to all for the input so far. I had the opportunity to buy a pair of dark blue (cobalt) jade ones. However, I passed because they were cased with colorless on the outside. I have had dark...
  14. Here's an example of the red one that was sold through Skinner ... as you can see, there's a shadow-effect created by the exterior layer of colorless glass. The vase just looks a little "off" to me,...
  15. Very nice example. Looks great, and I have no doubt your lamp is genuine. My question is ... have you (or anyone else out there) seen the cased glass versions? What I mean by that is I have ...
  16. Love Copier Unica Pieces!
  17. Beautiful ... elegant ... gotta love the clean lines.
  18. How well does the stopper fit? Does it wobble? Does it provide a smooth, air-tight seal?
  19. Very interesting. Is it an "Ariel" (trapped air bubble) technique, or is the design deep carved (acid etched) on the surface?
  20. Quite the find. Well done, and congratulations!
  21. The shape is classic Steuben. Most often seen in various colors. It does not mean others did not make the shape, but my first thought whenever I see this shape is Steuben. Every one (so far) was co...
  22. You are correct, and it is another piece from Mandruzzato.
  23. Thank you all for the loves and comments. It is very gratifying to find others who share my love of glass.
  24. Thank you all for the loves and comments. It is very gratifying to find others who share my love of glass.
  25. I do love a good mystery! I could be way off base on this one, but the stem construction and pulled feather combination reminds me a little of some Trevaise goblets / floral forms. My experience wi...
  26. Your vase is from Mandruzzato's "textured" line ... an Italian art glass manufacturer.
  27. Most likely Barovier. Possibly Seguso. Beautiful!
  28. Can you please add a picture of the bottom (pontil, etc.)?
  29. That's the name on the tip of my tongue that I could not remember. Nice recall LOUMANAL ... I concur, V. Nason & Co is the likely maker.
  30. For what it is worth, I think it is a lovely piece, but I have to agree it looks like the gold color is from gold foil; either on the surface, or between the red / cranberry color and a colorless exte...
  31. It should be Italian. There is often an embossed "ITALY" mark in the underside or interior of these types of pieces. The mark can be difficult to see since it would blend into the pattern of the gla...
  32. Added picture of the base.
  33. Beautiful vase! Love the shape.
  34. I agree it looks like Loetz, but the contour if the interior of the neck looks like it may be ground to me. If so, my guess is it used to be a perfume bottle.
  35. Beautiful .... Thanks.
  36. Can you say who the manufacturer is?
  37. They tend to come in 2 basic forms. A floral vase or a swan form. Any and all colors can be found.
  38. I cannot swear to it either way, but it looks identical in shape to some Loetz Titania pieces I have seen; including the exterior ribs.
  39. While I cannot swear to a 100% certainty as to where your vases were made, these types of vases are typically the product of glass blowing lessons / classes. Corning museum of glass offers a chance f...
  40. Definitely looks like a form of cameo glass ... likely acid cut back; possibly cleaned up around the edges by hand. I am also surprised there are no markings ... glass or hardware ...
  41. Possibly iittala?
  42. Excellent color; much more robust looking than your typical gold aurene piece.
  43. I believe it is Webb. Do a google search (or other search engine of you prefer) on "webb waves vase", and you'll see other examples. "webb wavy vase" will show alternate examples.
  44. Sorry for the horrible typing above ... :)
  45. Boston & Sandwich made similar "overshot" or "crackle" pitchers ... it has been a while since I looked, but I think they can be found in the sandwich books. to be honest, I was surprised to see the l...
  46. I had the turtle lawn ornament / sprinkler ... love the whole line :)
  47. Legras was my first guess ... that or similar style decorator. Sometimes an "Leg" can be found enameled on the side of the object if it is Legras.
  48. Also, be sure to identify the specific color of the bowl. If it is "Aqua", another version of blue, then it can be much more as well. Unfortunately, variations in light blue colors are too difficul...
  49. Actually, I just did a little more research, and found plates supposedly always have a "basketweave" pattern on the back, and bowls are the only ones with the "rib" pattern such as it looks like you h...
  50. Okay ... that helped. Most of the markings you see are what are known as manufacturer's "straw" marks. It's from how the glass is handeled while being made. It is fairly common to find in carnival...
