Title: Triangle with a C
Post by: ibovnu on May 07, 2006, 03:04:55 PM

I have, what appears to be, a light blue glass pickle dish with a silver metal banded holder and handle, the only identifying mark on it, on the bottom there is a very small triangle with the letter c inside, any ideas? Thanks

C in a triangle is the mark for Cambridge Glass, OH, USA, 1920-1954. Is the mark on the glass not the metal? Posting a picture of the item and the mark would help to confirm. Adding your location to your profile can also help in identifying glass, as it sometimes gives a starting pint. Sometimes it's a red herring of course :lol:

Yes, the mark is on the bottom of the glass. Here are 2 photo's, one of the dish (not exactly sure what kind of dish to call it) and one of the triangle with the "C". Thanks

That certainly looks like the Cambridge C. This site might help you identify your dish, http://www.cambridgeglass.org/. Chesse slices is as Krafty  use as any :lol:  :oops:

Cambridge Decagon in Moonlight Blue made from 1930s-1940s.

You don't mention the size but if it is 9 inches long, then it is a pickle dish.

If that isn't the dimension, then tell me what it is and I will look it up.

Yes, the glass dish is 8.5 X 4.75 and in great shape, it was one of the pieces that were left by the rest of my family at my dearly missed grandmothers house when I cleaned it out and put it up for sale, can't believe no one wanted it ... it is so beautiful, such a light blue color and it makes me happy.  :D  
P.S.  I posted another question but haven't gotten any answers, probably because I had really big downloads but have since learned how to make them smaller, could you help me with that?  It is posted as "unknown patterns?"
Thanks for all your help.
