Morgantown Lace BouquetI have had these two glasses for a long time.  At one time I had this blank – #7668 – Galaxy – with the American Beauty etch (#734), this etch and the Mayfair etch.  I think I bought them all at once without picking up the differences between Mayfair (Etch #787 1/2) and the Lace Bouquet (Etch #810) stems.

I think I’ve owned these for at least 10 years.  Morgantown Lace Bouquet (5)Don’t know why I’ve never photographed them.  I actually am not that fond of them – don’t know why!

I gather that these glasses were produced from the late 1940s to the late 1950s expressly for Sears & Roebuck.

I came across this pretty bowl on our recent (August) trip to the US.  I only half recognized the etch but knew that I had seen it before.  Pretty octagonal footed bowl/dish – 4 3/4 inches tall.

I am guessing that this is the mayonnaise bowl.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Isn’t this pretty?  We went on a rural ramble yesterday – Oshawa, Whitby, Port Perry, Lindsay, Fenelon Falls – and stopped in a few places.  I actually came home with very little.  Perhaps I am becoming more discriminating, perhaps I am becoming wiser……..perhaps I have no space in the house or garage!

In any event, I had to have this set of four!  They are a pretty pink.  Made by Tiffin during the 1920s, the etch is called Lois.  They mustn’t be all that abundant as I don’t see many (or none at this moment) online for sale.

The etch is a glorious daisy or mum.  I wonder how the name Lois came to be?

I picked these up at a neat consignment store in Port Perry called Caviar and Cobwebs.  Check it out!

Unknown etch with amber stem (2)I picked up this one pretty stem in Waterloo.  There were two , but one was chipped and I am no longer, knowingly, buying any damaged pieces.  (Sometimes I miss something and it drives me crazy!)

The experts at the Elegant and Everyday Glass Forum identified this lovely piece for me.  I thought I had seen it in one of my books, but no luck and I don’t have much on Morgantown.  I have very few Morgantown pieces any more.Unknown etch with amber stem

It is a very pretty floral etch and the amber stem and foot are most attractive.
