    Hi! I had good luck here before so....
    I have a set of these Federal Glass bowls that I picked up at an auction. I was going to try to sell them but I really like American made stuff and I'm thinking I may just add them to my own collection. Well, I guess that depends on what I find out about them.
    I'm told these are milk glass, though I thought milk glass was, well, milkier. This bowl is 4 15/16" across and 1 5/8" tall. I guess it is an ice cream bowl. I'd really like to find out anything I can about them, esp. the pattern name and, though I don't think they're very old, about when they were produced. Many thanks for any help. Y'all have a fun day!

      Thanks, Jewels. That did bring up some entries. I'll use it to see what I can find in a Federal book (if I can find the book!).

      Oh you're welcome, it might be an unofficial name :))) It does look like a pen and this bowl got together :) I love it!
