Over the years I have amassed a little collection of Pie Crust pieces. I guess I have not thought to post the photos.
This one is decorated with Hughes’ Corn flower cutting. I have two of them! Not deliberately, but this is evidence of having too many pieces of glass that you forget what you have!

I don’t know what it is about these pieces that I find so appealing. Could be the peg legs, or the deceptively attractive banding. The designs are simple, yet quite appealing.
This silver overlay on this piece is in perfect condition. I haven’t been able to identify it, but it obviously has a daffodil theme going on.
This three part bowl/dish has a very dainty etch/engraving (I never know what to call these designs, best do some research). It has a real pretty look to it.

I was scrolling through the Gallery of the Elegant and Everyday Glass Forum looking to ID an etch I am going to post soon when I came across a very similar bowl (different etch). I was so pleased to see that my bowl is older than I thought – mid 1920s-1945. Very exciting to be able to identify a piece. I actually never thought I would.

Original post – November 23, 2012:
I bought this little bowl sometime ago. It was 75 cents. I have to admit that I have it displayed in a dark corner of the basement. I’ve ignored it, in fact I hadn’t washed it in ages and was surprised when I did – I thought it had a yellowish tinge. Turns out it was dust!
When I REALLY looked at this piece I saw that it actually has some intriguing features. The feet and the banding (for the lack of a better word) make it very interesting.
The etch is pretty, although not spectacular, but the shape is very interesting. No idea which company made it.
I guess I should move it out of the basement.
One of the best reference set purchases I’ve made was to buy the three volume set of The Glass Candlestick Book by Tom Felt and Elaine & Rich Stoer. The first thing I do when I acquire a candlestick holder is to look for it in one of these books. Works from the major American glass companies are included.
