Some glass pieces I've been wondering about for a while

Anyone know about these? I think at least the bigger piece is antique (19th goose-style Cent glass claret/jug?) and the other one is perhaps a Fostoria piece.

The orange one weighs about 1.75 lbs and is 8.5 x 4.25" at its widest part. The other piece (it has more green tinting than showing up) weighs about 2.5 lbs and is 10.5 x 4.5.

Thanks in advance for replies.

Lovely Amber glass!

 

the amber dolphin base lamp might be Westmoreland

 

Will do some research. Thx. BTW, I think it's a fish, considering the scales.

 

In former times dolphins in art were often depicted with scales. On antique maps too. Ergo, most artists and cartographers lived inland.

 

Certainly looks like it

The base definitely looks like Westmoreland! Haven't found any examples online with the flowers or same style top yet.

 

I could be mistaken but I believe it is a depiction of a dolphin fish, not a dolphin.

 

Submariner's Dolphin Insignia.........for the scales on the dolphins.....

They claim pre 1929

This search gets you several, but the underlying links go nowhere

The clear wrythen glass piece is rather intriguing ..not seen that form before.

 

Correct.

 

Based on this following from https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/westmoreland-glass-company-148924, it is possible they made this piece in the 20s.
Other Westmoreland Wares
Westmoreland is clearly best known for its milk glass, with 90 percent of the glass produced from the 1920s through the 1950s having the milky white hue. However, in the 1920s the company did make limited selections of high quality decorated glass and crystal, including hen on nest dishes made in a variety of colors in addition to the ever-popular milk glass examples. Even into the 1950s, limited amounts of amber, blue, green, pink, and brown glass left the Westmoreland factory.

 

Not sure I would believe this.
Westmoreland started out in the late 1800s as the Specialty Glass Co., before becoming Westmoreland Glass.

Yes they were a major maker of milk glass in the late 40s through the 60s. However, just about every pattern they made in milk glass, they also made in colored or clear glass.

Remember this is the internet. Once stated, then copied, then considered fact.
Go to the library and check out some books.

Dude. I am not a knowledgeable person, when it comes to glass. I am here just like you to learn. I was just doing some research for you to give you some search terms and so you could compare your piece to something. The differences in pieces and makers can be very subtle. I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression that I confirmed the Westmoreland piece. I will have to be more careful in my future posts. Kiko

 

@KikoBlueEyes
I think you are correct in IDing this as Westmoreland.

Not that I don't appreciate a good "you-understood" imperative, or a trip to the library, but it essentially states the same thing in Schroeder's antiques price guides.
