Hi everybody. I have a few original 564s...one is marked nucut while the other 2 are not. But this one I know has to be a later piece. How many others used the Imperial 564 mold? What color would this be considered? Any ideas would help alot. Thanks again :)
from the photo the color looks like apple green; have you checked with a black light?
no reaction to UV
Imperials' Nucut was never made in colors, correct?
considering that this 564 is a NUCUT pattern, it would seem that they did indeed produce NUCUT in colors; tho' this is likely a later reissue...
Very interesting...Nucut began around 1912 or so....correct? I wonder how much "later" this could have been produced? Minus the mark "Nucut" it is pretty much the same as an original. The sawtooth edge is a little less sharp than an original....could be from mold wear.
the catalogs I have date 1920-32 for the crystal NUCUT assortments but I don't see the 564. One reference has the date as 1915. I'm guessing this may have been called an olive dish by Imperial Glass. Replacements has one in milk glass miss-IDed as 212.; have seen various NUCUT pieces in various colors.
