<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ola402, post: 354972, member: 182&quot;]Pat (cluttered), the cheese dish you show in your photo looks like what mine should be with a glass bottom.&nbsp; How old is that one?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>cherry, the finial looks ground and polished to me, and it was made separately and then applied to the dome.&nbsp; In the following photo, you can see that the glassmaker left a little &quot;notch&quot; where it was applied. Also, the finial has some bubbles in it and is slightly listing to one side.&nbsp;&nbsp; When I shined a black light on the piece, the finial lit up brightly like a light bulb.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Whoever owned it, used it quite a bit.&nbsp; The wood base shows some wear, unless it&#039;s a marriage from a different dish.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Oh well, I paid very little for it and was just curious about it because it seemed like it didn&#039;t match but the top was so pretty.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for everyone&#039;s responses.&nbsp; Wish I could have kept my eyes open last night but they just shut on me, so my delayed reply.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
