  1. Excellent TallCakes, when I first got them I thought Leerdam because of the colour but couldn't find anything.
  2. A link to replacements.com https://www.replacements.com/crystal-unknown-manufacturer-floradora-green/c/257331
  3. Thanks kivatinitz, this type of glass always glows well, although it doesn't have a particularly high uranium content.
  4. Thanks SEAN68
  5. Thanks Newfld and kivatinitz.
  6. That was quick DejaVu2, it certainly is.
  7. Thanks kivatinitz, I've added a photo of one of a similar age, engraved with the name James Hogg, a surname common in Scotland.
  8. Thanks vetraio50, that's what I thought too.
  9. Thanks kivatinitz and leesa3242.
  10. Thanks dav2no1
  11. Yes kivatinitz, I believe Argentinian players can often be found at matches in England, high society events. I think this indicates the market Hoffman was aiming for.
  12. kivatinitz, I find quite a lot of these Murano Sommerso pieces which contain uranium. I will post a bird which I bought yesterday.
  13. Thanks Deano, the bottom hasn't been ground and polished, it's slightly raised and a bit lumpy, no sign of a signature.
  14. Thanks Phil, it is quite cute and quite scarce, also well moulded.
  15. Thanks Deano, these Pearline pieces do glow well.
  16. Thanks kivatinitz and DejaVu2, both lucky and gorgeous indeed.
  17. Thanks kivatinitz, it's even nicer in the flesh and it rings lik a bell.
  18. Here's a link to the excellent Opensalts.us site, Baccarat 1893 catalogue P.61 https://opensalts.us/References/Catalogs/France/FRA-Baccarat1893-61W.jpg
  19. Thanks Newfld, at first glance I thought they were acorns but they are painted blue and the leaves aren't oak leaves, I'll try and identify them.
  20. Hello kwqd, there is quite a lot of carnival glass about, mostly "marigold" which I don't usually buy. The colour of this one stood out though and I also have a vase in cobalt blue. I usually keep the...
  21. Thanks clockerman, it's much better in the flesh, I've tried adjusting the colour in the photos, but can't get it right .
  22. Thanks PhilDMorris and BHIFOS, amazingly I found it locally on someones driveway under a table of other "FREE" items. I couldn't believe it when I got it home and checked it under UV. It's possible it...
  23. Thanks kivatinitz.
  24. It certainly is dav2no1, I'm still buying it but also selling pieces to make room. This vase seems to be unusual, I can't find anything similar.
  25. Thanks Russell117, Thomas Webb does seem the most likely.
  26. Thanks DejaVu2, elsewhere I've seen a pair of similar ones complete with spoons so I now think it's a salt.
  27. Thanks kivatinitz, I am pretty sure these are by Goldberg. Apparently they bought in glass from several Bohemian makers and then added the decoration.
  28. Thanks welzebub, I should have checked a bit further, I will now.
  29. Thanks welzebub, the conclusion I came to is that it's too plain and not "artistic" enough to be Kirschner. I can't find one like it but I did find a similarly shaped painted vase attributed to Beyerm...
  30. Thanks kivatinitz, I do think it has some uranium content, it was sometimes used as a colour enhancer, the main dark green colourant makes it go opaque under UV light. It appears to be just one colour...
  31. Thanks IronLace, on this linked site the thumbnail photo to the H.G. Richardson section shows a light with a similar decor. https://fairylamps.snappages.site/makers
  32. Thanks sklo42 and racer4four, it has a couple of chips to the frilled rim but that's ok, it also rings like a bell.
  33. Thanks IronLace, I've now got fourteen in various shapes and colours!
  34. Thanks Searching1
  35. Shown here on Mike Tomlin's excellent site, P.13. http://www.victorianpressedglass.com/pdf/sowerby/sowerby_1892.pdf
  36. Thanks Searching1, a lovely shade of pale yellow, I think called "citrine".
  37. Design shown here as the T45 pattern. https://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Baccarat-1916-br-Garnitures-de.54+B6YmFja1BJRD01NCZwcm9kdWN0SUQ9MjEwOCZwaWRfcHJvZHVjdD01NCZkZXRhaWw9.0.html
  38. kivatinitz, I hadn't seen one like it before but I found the site in this link which has similar ones in showing how they would be used. https://www.vaselineglass.org/photos/victorian-marmalade-jel...
  39. Thanks dav2no1, I think it's possibly by Richardson and is a preserve dish.
  40. Thanks kisslikeether, I know it can be faked but the wear on the bottom looks genuine to me and indicates it has got some age and is not modern. Chinese glass pontil marks are often ground but not pol...
  41. Excitement over, it's actually Scottish, made by Caithness but still a nice vase, oh well :(
  42. Thanks sklo42, here's a link to a Loetz site which shows some of the miniature vases, there are also quite a few others viewable on line. https://www.loetz.com/decors-a-z/miniatures As you can see, ...
  43. Thanks again, kivatinitz
  44. It's an etch on the back of the plates.
  45. Thanks IronLace.
  46. Thanks IronLace, do you think it's by Harrach?, I think it probably is. I've added a photo to give a better impression of the colour.
  47. I found another one so now have a pair :)
  48. Thanks Newfld and PhilDMorris, I've changed the last photo to show the glow even better.
  49. Thanks kivatinitz, I'm beginning to think it's actually made by a Bohemian or German maker, there's some research to be done.
  50. It certainly is BHIFOS, I've just got to work out where to put it!
    51. See more
