I picked up these glasses at The Old Jail Antiques in Waterdown, N.Y. during the summer.  For the longest time I thought the etch was one by Seneca Glass that I own.  I finally took a closer look and realized that they were NOT the same.

I have so much glass that I haven’t photographed that I have been lazy with my identifications.  Anyway I finally identified these as Morgantown stems.  The stem line is #7653 and the etch is #778.  I believe that the combination of the etched platinum border changes the name to Carlton Marco.

The larger glass is the parfait (I think) and the smaller is (who knows?).

They are lovely, quite heavy, and the photos really don’t do them justice.

Unknown Line with Lotus Glass’ Springtime Etch

I picked a set of these pretty glasses up at Ontario Mall Antiques in Rochester, N.Y.

I am not knowledgeable enough to identify the maker of this glass.  I think there were a number of companies that produced lines with the ‘ballerina’ stem.  This glass has a medium-large subtle optic and is decorated with Lotus’ Glass’ Springtime etch.

It is likely a liquor or cocktail glass standing at 6 3/8 inches and with a diameter of 6 1/8 inches.

The etch is pretty with lots of details – lady blowing a horn/trumpet, a cherub, flowers, foliage and scrollwork.
