So I was saying to TallCakes on another thread that I've seen this pattern, the one in the first photo, IDed as Burple, and as Oysters and Pearl, and he replied that these patterns and similar patterns are often misidentified on auction sites. There are lots of bubbly glass patterns, unless you are an expert or have access to reference books, some sellers are just going to take a shot at identifying what they have as whatever, and listing it as such. As for these little bubbly pieces, I think the first one is Burple, which looks like Oysters and Pearl except it has feeties. That is the fruit bowl size, 8 1/2", and I have the little Burple berry bowls, 4". The second, third, and fourth photos, I have no clue, lol. Any help in identifying them would be greatly appreciated. I hope you enjoyed seeing them, and thanks for looking.
agree, the first one is a master berry & is 'Burple'; OMN: Inspiration. Not sure on the 2nd and 4th but I'll look around. The third has been here before and I haven't been able to find an ID.
TallCakes, you are a prince, thank you! Master berry, I like that. May I ask what OMN means?
Oh, I knew I forgot something I was going to write in the OP, yes, the little tray was posted here a long while ago, I thought it was appropriate to stick it in here with the other bubble mysteries. I remember when I first was researching it, was hopeful it was an Oyster and Pearl variant, but alas no. :)
Glass bubbles in glass are refeered to as controlled bubble "Bullicante" Bohemian and Italian glass have these designs.
Thanks for the love, aghcollect, mikelv85, fortapache, GeodeJem, and kyratango. :)
Thanks, GeodeJem, art glass is another field I'm trying to understand. :)
I love the glass, and Burple is an awesome name for anything!
OMN = Original Manufacturer's Name
love the knobs in glass!!!!
a clear image from the bottom of maybe a quarter corner might reveal something in the details for #3
TallCakes, will do, thanks! :)

Karen, Burple makes me a little green at the gills, lol. Thanks, we share a love of glass in common. :P
Sean, yes, pattern glass is so attractive, bubbles, hobnail, facets, knobs, I love it all. Thank you for the compliment. :)
Ken, that little tray has proven to be very elusive, which is odd since it is quite beautiful, you'd think there'd be plenty more of it around. I'd like more of it! Thank you for your compliment, always a pleasure. :)
