  32. ditto, noted as Leerdam Netherlands https://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/schalen/04275.html
  33. but it look like a wheel/roller at the business end. which wouldn't work well with cheese. It would roll with pasta/pastry dough that has been rolled out on a cutting board to cut the dough/pasta.
  34. maybe a pastry/dough cuter roller
  35. figural clown bottle: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-amber-glass-figural-clown-1799316785 https://www.ebay.ie/itm/Rare-Red-Bottle-Decanter-Early-Figural-Art-Glass-Clown-Ground-Stoppe...
  36. maybe a lid for an oval/oblong dutch oven; that deep type of deep lid was fairly common for holding coals for campfire cooking.
  37. generically, it's Dutch Delft Biblical Tile, of which there are many. Looks as tho' the angel is holding a serpent rather than a sword.
  38. looks to be a fairly recent interpretation of an EAPG pattern called 'Eye Winker'. Not sure of maker, but I did find other pieces in this pattern online as well as your piece: http://www.horizonglass...

  47. AKA: Pickaroon or hookaroon
  48. does look more like a dresser/trinket box to me also; but who can say for sure without a maker's catalog. The closest I find is Fostoria #93 Guttate c1893 but can't find a box in that pattern. Consoli...
  49. ditto on the Davidson 'Pearline' pattern called 'Primrose'; you'll often find the registration number embossed in the glass: possibly Rd 212634 and Rd 285342
