\"\"<\/a>My husband and I took a road trip to the Poconos this month. \u00a0We stopped in many antique shops and I have brought home along of new (old) glass. \u00a0Who knew that I would acquire another piece of Oakwood so soon after the last purchase.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This pretty compote is in the blue. \u00a0This really is an attractive etch and the iridescent colours make the blue glass sing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I had my eye on this pair of candle holders at Around the Block for some time. \u00a0I had to wait a few months until the price dropped but they finally came home with me. \u00a0I have always been fascinated with the Oak Leaf brocaded plate etch – #290. \u00a0I just plain like oak trees and acorns period!<\/p>\n

I found this interesting information on the brocaded etches at Carnival Glass 101<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Perhaps the most popular and most extensive Brocade line was the \u201cOak Leaf\u201d pattern, plate etching #290, which was presented as \u201cOak Wood\u201d, decoration #72, when the azure (green) color was iridized and trimmed with gold. This pattern was introduced in 1928 and discontinued in 1931. It was also made in rose (dawn), ebony and crystal.”<\/p>\n

These mushroom candle holders are the orchid. \u00a0The iridized colours are pink, green, \"\"<\/a>blue and yellow. \u00a0Very striking – I would love to see the stemware.<\/p>\n
