I've been calling it pale Amberina, Rubina Verde is canary at the bottom. Glows bright green under blacklight.
Hi Owned, I've had/seen a fair amount of that color ware in the US, always thought it was an import, never thought of Webb. One piece that was...
Some other time.
This needs repeated over and over. Only blown glass can be flashed, Before it is formed, the gather of molten glass is dipped in a pot of...
Just picking a very small nit. A cordial glass holds between 3/4 oz and 1 1/4 oz, a wine glass between 2 and 3 1/2 oz. I suspect yours is a wine.
The base appears to have been spherically ground, probably not American production. I'd suggest Europe.
It could well be Czech, ca 1925-29, another guess, but a bit more specific. The yellow color was developed by 1890, but not widely used until...
Dichroic glass does flash between colors as you move it. Labroadorite exhibits labradorescence, a side-effect of the molecular change producing...
Dichroic isn't exactly right, it depends upon the angle of light incidence, not the color of the light. I don't think we (the glass world) have...
If I weren't as optimistic as I am, I'd suspect the date was put in there to snare unwary buyers, hoping to score an old paperweight, but that...

Note, the Tiffin Glass Co. George mentioned above, became the Sneath Glass Co. in 1892 and burned in 1894, NOT the Tiffin Glass Co. of U. S. Glass...

Most certainly.
Check with Kanawah, they did a lot with that mold.
Geo. Duncan's line of "English Threaded" ( a fair sized line) was pressed, your piece is surely blown, the type from which Duncan copied.
Guttate is a specific Consolidated pattern, looks like nothing so much as bulging intestines. Your piece may be from as stated, Bohemia, the...
The sherbets are cut, not etched. They are blown, with or without a pontil mark. In this case the bubble was blown, the stem pulled out and the...
For what little it's worth, the plates are pressed and the sherbets are blown, not a usual combination.
I'd eliminate Dithridge, the vast majority of their molds had a large (5/16 - 3/8) number raised in the outside bottom of each piece. The mold...
Separate names with a comma.
