Title: Depression glass identification help
Post by: dshell74 on September 06, 2006, 02:37:36 AM

Hello all. My mom and I can't find these in any of our seven books. Does anyone know anything about these pieces? They are just a few of the several hundred pieces that my deceased grandmother had stashed away in the basement. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks!

I won't be much help on most of this, sorry. However, photo number 4 appears to be possibly a Heisey Colonial pattern. If you look inside to the bottom, do you see any marks? Terry

I thought that perhaps it was Heisey, but, I didn't see any marks.

i see the photos without problem and recognise some but need to confirm maker/pattern in the books bf I comment.

However the last one (#6), sherbet, is by Federal Glass, pattern unknown

Must be a glitch between Photobucket and Mozilla Firefox (my browser) - I still see "THIS IMAGE OR VIDEO HAS BEEN MOVED OR DELETED" on all your pics. Rats, I tried....

Never mind, I see that you now have them on the Glass Queries Gallery, thanks. I'll see what I can find.

Your Pink saucer is either Block Optic by Hocking (1929-33)
or Colonial Block by Hazel Atlas (early 1930's). Neither book that I have shows the saucer well enough to tell the difference. Maybe you can look those patterns up online and compare with yours....

So many folks did a lace-edge pattern - Hocking did "Old Colony", also known as Lace-Edge or Open-Lace, but the plates all had a "rayed" center. I'm thinking yours is an elegant maker, perhaps Westmoreland or Duncan.
