Cambridge Rosepoint Cake Plate (5)I was told recently that vintage cake plates are “in”.  I don’t know, I’ve never been “in”!  I gather that serious hosts/cooks would never serve their cake on Tupperware.  Who knew?

I can attest that this is a very pretty item.  I have been Cambridge Rosepoint Cake Plate (3)digging through the boxes in the garage and will be posting some ‘lost’ items, including this piece.

I think I bought this at an auction some time ago and was too lazy to photograph it, before burying it.Cambridge Rosepoint Cake Plate (2)

The etch is fairly common – it was made on a number of different shapes and in many pieces, over a long period of time –  from 1934-1958.  Pretty pattern – the etch is made up of flowers, a crest and leaves.

Now that I’ve rediscovered it, I might just have to bake a cake!

Cornflower, Floral Etch, Tumblers

I’ve posted this etch in other blanks and I have another couple shapes.  I’m going to have to hunt them down and take some photos. Cornflower Tumblers (2) But I’ve never come across the etch in a tumbler before.

I’ve earlier reported that Hughes used blanks from a number of the major U.S. glass producing companies, as well as European companies.  I have some gorgeous pink stems that were etched on a Tiffin blank (#15024).  In looking through my one Hughes reference book, my tumblers look very similar to those in a photo that have been attributed to New Martinsville, in the 1930s.Cornflower Tumblers

I wouldn’t mind keeping these.  I’m going to have to look for a few more!  Yippie.

 

Fostoria Champagnes in the Romance Etch

Champagne, Floral Etch, Plate Etched

Fostoria RomanceIsn`t this pretty.  I bought 14 of these pieces and I hope to sell them to someone who is looking for a gorgeous wedding present.

I have never owned anything in the Romance etch before.  It is very much like Fostoria`s June etch.  I gather however  that Romance was never made in colors, while June was made in pink, blue, yellow and green I think (I used to own a blue bowl which I am now sorry that I sold!)  The blank used is different and if you look at the pattern closely enough you can see the differences between the ribbons.Fostoria Romance (2)

Romance was produced between 1942 – 1971, while June had earlier production years – 1928 – 1951.  

Very lovely and would great at the head table of a wedding!
