What a gorgeous stem! I have shown a couple Heisey Orchid Pieces, but this is the first water goblet I’ve had. This is a very 
majestic blank and etch. I like my Heisey glass very much. I have four of the water goblets. Don’t know if I will use them, or sell them down the road. I had parfaits some time 
ago, but sold them online. If I sell them, they have to go to an appreciative home – after all they are gorgeous pieces!

I’ve posted this pattern in a champagne glass. I just have the one champagne. I decided to buy 8 of the water goblets for resale some day so ordered these online. 
The Cherokee Rose etch comes in at least two blanks. I think this is the more common stem.
These pieces were made by Tiffin from 1941-1966.
They are quite pretty. Heavy. I think that a glass obsessed person could collect just rose etches. Unfortunately I haven’t gotten to this ‘place’ yet.

This was a very fun purchase. I saw this glass on ebay. The photo was fuzzy and I couldn’t make out the pattern. 
I recognized the stem as Fostoria. In fact, I thought that the etch was Fostoria’s Meadow Rose. The glass had a <Buy Now> price that wasn’t too high so I thought I’d buy it on spec. As it turns out it is Navarre. I think it is the larger claret.
I’ve had Navarre snifters and I have a broken blue bell. I’ve not had other stems. 
The Navarre pieces are popular and expensive online. I’m not sure why though. It’s pretty, but I’ve seen prettier. Nonetheless I’m pleased with my buy.
