<p>[QUOTE="msgood2shoe, post: 410901, member: 69"]In regards to the green opalescent bowl, in "Opalescent Glass from A - Z" by Heacock as revised by Elmore it is listed as "Reverse Drapery" produced by Fenton circa 1907. A different pattern is identified as Drape produced by Northwood. There is an excerpt from an Oct 1998 letter from Frank Fenton regarding this pattern and the name. He notes that Fenton didn't actually name the pattern when they produced it, it was just given a number and description in their material from the era. He discusses the name Drapery being used for both Northwood produced pieces as well as Fenton. He notes that some call the pattern "Fenton Drapery". </p><p><br /></p><p>Some other aka's are Boggy Bayou and Cut Arcs in Carnival. </p><p><br /></p><p>Neither pattern has known reproductions in opalescent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
