The Carnival version of this vase stands 10 inches high and is known with two mouth shapings: incurved and slightly flared outwards. I have only seen examples in black amethyst Carnival. It is a much sought after vase in Carnival and is seldom seen. It's known as "Sowerby Drape" but has an alter-ego as "(Lady) Cynthia".

Chris, it looks like you might have found the carnival version that Glen refers to in her earlier reply? (quoted above)

I just realised this post is coming up to 14 years old, is that a record?.


According to Charles Hajdamach it's called "rainbo lustre" he is missing the W could be a typing error?.

I have no idea Chris, Glen is the carnival queen so she'd be the one to ask that question of.    8)

14 years is probably getting on for a record, but we never close discussion topics like this as there is always something new to add. It was one of my earliest posts on the board, way back when I was a new kid on the block!  I still have my pink drape vase too. ;D
