This butter dish was manufactured by the H. Northwood Company of Wheeling, West Virginia prior to 1924. The pattern, no. 21, was introduced in 1907.

It is a pretty marigold with hints of pink, blue and yellow.

For more information, and other examples of this pattern, check out David Doty’s Carnival Glass Website.

I still think that the flowers look more like sunflowers than lilies.

Indiana Glass - Lily Pons - Ruby (4)

 

Indiana Glass - Lily Pons - Ruby (5)

I had not seen this flashed on Ruby colour in the past.  The colour is sprayed on to the amber bowl.  It is very vibrant.  I was lucky, the colour is virtually intact.

Indiana Glass Lily PonsUpdate from my original May 11, 2012 posting.  Oddly enough I purchased a piece of this in milk glass yesterday and one today, in two different towns.  It spurred me on to try to further identify this piece.  Turns out is WAS made by Indiana Glass and is called Lily Pons.

This is what Carnival Heaven has to say about the pattern…

“Lily Pons is Indiana Glass Pattern Number 605. It was first introduced in 1930 and reproduced many times over the years. The original Lily Pon was made in crystal, green and pink, the usual depression glass colors. The reproductions were made in olive green, amber, milk glass, ruby flash glass and gold carnival glass.

So…these pieces were made in the 1960s & 1970s.  Have a look at the Carnival Heaven site for photos of the originals.

My long suffering partner supports my glass collecting habits.  When he is out and about he is often looking for a deal for me, even though he is not as familiar with glass pieces as I might be.

He recently brought home this bowl.  My first reaction was “hmmmm…” not quite my thing.  I suggested that we give it away to someone in the family who thought it was pretty.

But, lo and behold we were out and about visiting various antique shops when, over the course, of a day I came across this bowl twice, I think.

So…..I looked at it again.  It is very pretty. Shiny iridescent colours.  Flower petals make up the shape.  I saw this on ebay and it was cited to be a piece of Indiana Glass or Northwood.  No idea, can’t find a mark.

Now, although it is still not my thing, I will likely hang on to it for a bit and not pass judgment quite so quickly.

Bowl, Carnival, Carnival Glass

Unknown Carnival BowlThis is a pretty little bowl, with interesting features.  My guy bought it home from, where else, an auction.

At first glance, I though – ho hum.  But once I washed it I found it somewhat more attractive.  Unknown Carnival Bowl 3Although not spectacularly coloured, there are some red tints.  It also has cute little feet, the beaded edge and a nice  pattern around the bowl.

Don’t know if I will ever be able to identify it, but I’m going to get around to trying!
