    Just saw a new post that compared a RED YELLOW GREEN spatter to my ORANGE YELLOW GREEN spatter, and declared as being the same, I know it's Saturday night, but Tomatoes and Pumpkins are a different color, so are red and orange.

    Title of new post 11:00om EST
    "Red, Yellow and Green Aventurine on a Clear Ground – Who Actually Made The Décor?? Welz!!"

    There seems to be such an obsession about proving me wrong, that somehow in the hurry to do it, they mistook one color for another. ......

    What else can I say. There is enough chest pounding, and agitation with these members, that you would swear this is a life and death situation, truly ridiculous folks.

      Truthordare you are awesome and what a fun posting.
      It could be an old man like me that does not see colors so truly anymore.
      I actually see pumpkins and tomatoes in that spatter basket. Please forgive me if my old eyes have deceived me again. Again I must say this is a fun posting and you have a great point and some really nice Welz art glass. You are correct!

      Treasure Tex, glad I made you laugh with my produce post....lol
      You raise a good point, how we perceive colors. You are right, my basket some red in it, but it has more orange, sometimes over the red, I will take a better photo of it so we can see the difference with the Welz red green and yellow color combinations.

      I still believe these are by two separate makers, the basket here has some fabrication differences with the others considered Welz. When I get the red one, I will do a post to show how they are different.

      My approach is in the main one that tries to show, multiple molds, multiple glass decors would indicate several producers. The experts in the field of Czech glass also agree with this opinion, is it a popular one, no. Just makes identification even more difficult.

      Thank you for your kind words.
