I don’t have alot of milk glass.  It’s funny.  When I see it in person I think…..”well, that’s nice, but ho hum.”  When I see it on people’s blogs or on Pinterest, I think, “Wow!  How gorgeous!”

I don’t know alot about milk glass, but I do know that Westmoreland was a significant manufacturer.  Here’s a link to an interesting piece on Milk Glass.

I think this piece is aptly named.  The little blocks with the stars placed on the diagonal does have the look of an old-fashioned quilt.

Grapes, Milk glass, Milkglass, Vase, Westmoreland

Another pretty example, this time with hand painted details.  I see in my book Westmoreland Glass: 1950-1984 by Lorraine Kovar, that this vase is item #37, but I don’t know if that is the author’s numbering or Westmoreland’s.

It is hard to see in such a small photo, but the roses, bows and foliage are the same with the minor differences resulting from different artisans doing the painting.

Very pretty.

Westmoreland Paneled Grape Sugar (4)This cute milk glass sugar bowl  showcases the ‘fruity’ details of Westmoreland’s popular Paneled Grape pattern.  It was likely manufactured in the 1950s or 1960s.

The sugar bowl is considered to be the ‘small’ bowl and stands 3 3/8 inches tall, without the lid. With the lid, it stands about 5 3/4 inches to the top of the finial.

It is marked with Westmoreland’s “WG” mark.

The Paneled Grape pieces must have been common as they are not difficult to locate.

Animals in Glass, Lion, Milk glass, Milkglass

I have seen this piece online in the past.  It has been identified as Westmoreland, but I do no know if this is true.  If someone else does that would be great.  It is not signed, but has the number ‘3’ in the bottom of the base.

I only have the reference – Westoreland Glass 1950-1984 by Lorraine Kovar.  This piece is not represented.  No surprise as I think it was made earlier.

In any event it is a neat piece.  I like the cheeky expression on the lion’s face.  The paint is worn off but it obviously was decorated with dark brown or green in the past.
