I am trying to determine the number of color combinations and variety of products that V. Nason and C. produced in pressed glass with Aventurine. So far I have come across 1. The black base, 2. turquoise base, 3. black base and red, 4. black base and turquoise, 5. black base and yellow/green, 6. black base and royal blue, 7. black base and multi color, 8. smokey base and yellow/green. I am assuming that all these combinations were produced by the same company as I have the small round 3" ashtray in the first 6 color combinations. Many were exported/imported by Weil Ceramics and Glass. I have found examples of some 20 different types of ashtrays, two types of covered bowls/dishes, a covered cigarette box, a lighter, match holder, condiment dish, and an apple shaped bowl. I doubt if all items were produced in all colors. It seems that that the pressed glass line started with the black base and may have been a natural progression form the company's production of blown glass vases. Let me know if anyone else has an interest in V. Nason's pressed glass items.
