It’s hard to see that this piece is yellow.

I was so happy to find this on our local Facebook Marketplace.  I recognized the cutting as Hughes’ Corn Flower but I didn’t recognize the line.

I posted an ID request on the Vintage Glass Identification group on Facebook.  The line was IDed very quickly as Heisey’s Empress line.  I should have known that!

This is the bottom of the lemon dish in Heisey Sahara (yellow).  Don’t know if I will ever find the lid, but who cares?  It’s a gorgeous little piece.  I have started a collection of Corn Flower in coloured glass.  So far my collection is limited to pink, amber, and red/clear.  I am sorry that I have sold the pieces that I used to have in Heisey in Hawthorne.

Hughes Cornflower Centre Handled DishI have sworn a million times that I am not going to buy any more Corn Flower, unless it is a coloured piece.  However, pieces keep following me home!

This weekend we took a trip down to the Niagara area.  Picked up a few pieces here and there.  Stopped in at Around the Block in Toronto.  What a great place!  They have a nice variety of good quality items of all kinds.  Very clean and bright and nicely arranged.  Definitely worth a visit.

This is a consignment shop with a difference.  Every month the prices of items decrease by 10%.  The price drops are shown right on the tags.  I bought this Hughes/Imperial plate and another dish which I will showcase soon.  Oh yes…a glass too.

The trouble with these center handled pieces is that they are large and correspondingly, more of a pain to store!  But….it is pretty, isn’t it?
