Pitcher and tumblers in grapes and leaves. The picture isn't a very good one but it shows what it is. The color is a purple/blue. Not sure of the official name of it.

There is a fella on here named TallCakes who really knows all this. Hopefully he'll see it.
TallCakes has helped me out a lot! Wish I had half the knowledge he did! Thanks everyone!
The Harvest carnival pitcher was introduced in blue carnival glass by the Indiana Glass Company in 1971. By 1974, gold and lime green carnival colors were added to the line. The Harvest pitcher stands about ten inches tall on it's pedestal base and weighs nearly 5 pounds. It holds 70 ounces of liquid.
Indiana Glass never sold water sets like many of the other carnival glass makers did. The pitchers, goblets and tumblers were always sold separately. That way you could mix and match and build your own water set.
The Harvest carnival pitcher was made in all three of the carnival glass colors, blue, gold and lime green.
The Harvest carnival glass tumblers were first introduced in blue carnival by the Indiana Glass Company in 1971. By 1974, the gold and lime green carnival colors were added to the line. The original factory name for them was "Coolers". They were meant to be ice tea tumblers.
These were sold in sets of four to a box. They stand just under 6 inches tall and they weigh nearly 1 pound each so they have some heft to them. These hold 14 ounces of liquid.
Copied and pasted it from a website. I'm using this website to compile all of my stuff and have information all in one place. Is something about it incorrect?
