I'd like to know more about this old bowl/ plate my mother gave me. It's really very brilliantly colored but I can't seem to capture it in a phot. I tried my best to find another like it or any info but so far have failed. There's no marks of any sort on it. Help me please! :) thank you!
It's very pretty. Would look good displayed on a plate stand. Like a blue sunflower. We've got lots of glass experts around here. Give it a few and you'll probably have the answer you're looking for.
looks like possibly Fostoria Heirloom
Thank ya ! I hope so too! :) I'm just so curious about it!
I have one like that but Green. It Looks to me to be 1960s-70s era by **Federal Glass Company** and the pattern is called "Celestial".
;-)
Indiana Glass ended up with the old FEDERAL molds and has reproduced this pattern for Tiara.The Indiana versions are of lesser quality with ripples and bumps in the glass rather than smooth and near optically transparent like Federal's original version.
When Indiana bought out Fostoria Glass they (Indiana) made some items in this pattern, which they (for some odd reason) put a Fostoria mark on, but Fostoria never owned these molds nor did they ever made this pattern.
