I came across this piece in a local thrift shop.  I always wonder how it made its way from West Virginia to a small Ontario town.  But I guess during its 80+ years there was lots of time for travel.  A poster in the Everyday and Elegant Glass Forum reports that this etch was introduced in 1933 and discontinued in 1939.

The etch is Fostoria’s #320 – Fruit Design and the line is #2419 – Mayfair.

This is a good sized, heavy piece.  The dish is 13 1/4 inches at its longest, 7 3/4 inches wide in the middle and 9 1/4 inches at its widest points. It stands 1 1/4 inches.

The glass is so bright it almost glows.  It is a very attractive piece.

I really like the diamond optic in this lovely goblet by Heisey.

The shape/blank is #3357 -King Arthur. The green stem and base colour is Heisey’s green – Moongleam.  Made between 1925-1937.

I am not a huge fan of ‘pink’ but thought that these pieces (there are two) were interesting.  This pair of pretty pink and white glass candle holders was made by Hocking Glass from Lancaster, Ohio.

The pieces are opaque white (Vitrock) with a fired on painted pink base. You can see the ‘beaded’ decorations – the ‘pearls’ I suppose.  Not sure where the ‘oyster’ can be found.
