Hi All
        members i am new to this site and glass collecting in general, i have posted on here before a day ago, or under orange fruit or cake stand,
i have been on the hunt for more glass today and would appreciate the members opinion on  what i have came back with, most of the glass i am collecting is because i like the look of the glass, also i would like to find out about who and where they  where made and what year, so i hope you will shed some light on these for me, many thank,s (photo's to follow)

I hope to that i am not braking any rules in asking this way, 
                                                                                      Regards

Hi you're are very welcome to post whatever you like (in glass) but you are much starting a new thread for each, particularly when they are so different. I can help you with one of them - your pineapple vase is an English Carnival (note the iridescence) by Canning Town Glass. See here for a thread http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,9115.0.html


Snap!

Hello,

Your large bowl appears to be Davidson's 535 pattern, apparently late 1960s. See Chris & Val Stewarts site here: http://cloudglass.com/other.htm

Sorry Paul's picture has gone. Here is another good carnival glass site http://www.ddoty.com/ You will find the Smoke version of your vase pictured here if you look around or do a search

Here is the start of the Davidson part of the cloud glass website http://cloudglass.com/History.htm

I know nothing about decanters. Is your pedestal bowl cut glass or pressed glass? It looks like it might be cut. Pamela's website is excellent for pressed glass http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/index2.html

Hi Christine
               have been looking though some books and on the internet but cant seem to find out about decanter any ideas please, the bowl seems cut glass, could be lead crystal?
