Came home with some treasure today. One to keep - a Victorian double spill holder or perhaps just an ornament in pale cranberry/pink, uranium and white. Have been looking at this one for a while and found the price had dropped 50%. It's not perfect, as the rear foot has lost its end, but I'm delighted with it. The hollow uprights seem to have been lined with a very thin layer of white, which gives an interesting effect.

And some to sell - two Jeanette Glass Co demitasses (tea cup to us Brits) with saucers bought for £2.50 each in the Iris pattern in irridescent plus a sugar. Looked in my books to discover they have a book price of $400 for a demitasse cup and saucer in irridescent!! Interestingly the irridescence is only on the outside of the cups and under the saucers. Why isn't it called carnival?

Hi, The Iris pattern was made after the carnival glass era. I think it was made from the 1920's-50's. with the marigold color being 1950's.  Bill B
