    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Pretty!

    Is one of the scallops chipped? I see it looks odd at about 2:00 in the second picture.

    Yes, one is chipped. Also this glass is closer to a Fire-King ivory or opalescent Fry Glass than true milk glass.

    That's the way much of the old (1890s - 19teens) milk glass should look with fiery edges.

    It looks similar to their leaf bracket.

    I doubt it is Greentown.
    I'd be looking at Dirthridge, Gillander, Fostoria or Atterbury.

    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 work, doesn't look as good as Gillinder, Fostoria or Atterbury, I'd look at some of the smaller plants, perhaps in Indiana in the early part of the 1900's, there were hundreds of them.
