Carnival Glass, Coloured Glass, Vase

Imperial Glass Ripple Vase (2)My guy was at an auction a few weeks ago.  He picked up two of these vases.  They are very attractive and I am certain that there are collectors out there who focus on these vases.

They are pretty neat – the ripples are very obvious on the exterior and the interior is also textured.Imperial Glass Ripple Vase (5)

I gather from David Doty’s website that this is a popular pattern and that there are  many variations.  It appears that this one is quite common.

It doesn’t have an Imperial mark, so I think it is older.  I gather, according to Mr. Doty that the later reproductions are marked.

My guy has a good eye!Imperial Glass Ripple Vase

Northwood (?) Smooth Rays Compote

Carnival Glass, Compote

I bought this pretty piece online  It was advertised as Northwood Smooth Rays pattern.  The vendor said that it had Northwood’s “Alaskan” finish which gave it a particular shine.  Hard to capture in the photos.

It IS pretty, I love the dark green glass, but now that I have it I am not convinced it is Northwood.  It is not signed, nor does it have the Northwood “button”.  As well I can’t find the shape in Northwood’s or Fenton’s Smooth Ray pieces.

Of course I should have investigated more fully before I bought it, but it wasn’t expensive and now I have something more to investigate!

Carnival Glass, Compote, Floral

I picked up this pretty marigold compote in Cobourg.  I’ve developed an appreciation for the colours of Carnival and want to add a few pieces to my collection.

The photo doesn’t really do the piece justice.  Hard to capture the intensity of the colour and the irridescence.
