By Chance......David
« on: February 24, 2012, 01:02:11 PM »
 :hi:

Found this just yesterday.  Glass oblong shallow bowl.  Has the label on it, so I know it is Chance Glass.  Any additional info about it (year, or rarity, or what it is really called).  Maybe it is a candy Dish?  I was not finding much for this type of *shape.

~ 13.5 inches long
~ 5.25 inches wide
~ Yellow Roses
~ Gold / Black oval Foil label (intact) for Chance glass

This is only my second piece here, but I recall seeing lots growing up.  Not sure where it is all hiding here (??)

  Thanks for you help!   :thup:

Thanks Keith.

So you do not see the shape overthere -- or the Color/pattern?  Was this made ONLY for Export? totally?

I'm afraid it's a common shape, and a fairly common pattern. I certainly see enough of it in charity shops!

It's a sandwich plate.  :thup:

Are you sure you aren't confusing it with Mermaid Rose Sue? That has fewer petals and no white background.

I have googled those names now -- and now I see that there is a difference in the flowers.  Yeah, I see what you mean one has fewer petals on it.  So this is a Sandwich plate? 

I now have a total of 2 pieces of Chance Glass  :clap:

Now I don't know! It's yellow roses. One bunch of yellow roses looks exactly like the next bunch of yellow roses.

But I certainly have seen these around - it's the white background that makes it look different to me.

One is an example, two is a mistake, three is a collection Rose. You need another bit!
