\"Swan<\/a>I bought this pretty green piece with the swan handles yesterday in Colborne. \u00a0Didn’t know anything about it, but figured that my mom will like it as she collects swans.<\/p>\n

At the Elegant and Everyday Glass Forum<\/a> online\u00a0gallery<\/a>\u00a0I found my swan. \u00a0It is identified as a piece of Diamond Glass-Ware. \u00a0The description mentioned that Fenton later acquired the molds for the blank. \u00a0I have posted a question \u00a0as to how to distinguish the Diamond pieces from Fenton pieces. \u00a0I’ll see if I receive any information.<\/p>\n

I’d not even heard of Diamond Glass-Ware before so I turned to the Glass Lover’s Database<\/a> for some information. \u00a0This is what I found”<\/p>\n

“Diamond Glass-Ware Company<\/h2>\n

Dugan-Diamond Glass Company. Dugan Glass begins its history as the Indiana Glass Company, operating from Indiana, Pennsylvania, from 1892 to 1896.<\/p>\n

In 1896 Harry Northwood, accompanied by Samuel Dugan and his three sons (Thomas E.A., Alfred and Samuel Jr.), took over the company, which changed its name to Northwood.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

From 1900 to 1903 it was known as the National Glass Company, under the direction of Harry Bastow and Thomas E.A. Dugan.<\/p>\n

From 1904 to 1909, it was called the Dugan Glass Company, creating the\u00a0Diamond-D<\/strong>\u00a0mark for some of its pressed ware, most notably, Carnival glass.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Finally, from 1913 to its closing in 1931 due to a plant fire, it was known as the Diamond Glass Company.”<\/p>\n

This is a pretty piece regardless of who has made it. \u00a0Hope my mom likes it.<\/p>\n
