This is a small candy dish that I found at an estate sale this morning. A couple of months ago I posted what I thought was American cut glass. But it wasn't. So I'm trying to build my skills on finding real cut glass. So what do you think?
Yes, this is indeed cut glass...but would not be classified as ABP (American Brilliant Period) because of the flowers (left in the gray, as we say). The band of cane cutting is an ABP motif, but towards creeping towards the 1910s cuttings were becoming a bit simpler and cut floral motifs became very popular. Nice find TB!
Thanks Paul! I was hoping you would see this post. :-)
Welcome!
Very nice piece.....should glow lime green under a black light.
Thanks NJL, I will have to check that out!
