Topic: HELP !!! Please help me identify this YELLOW/ORANGE dish

[jaxonbox]

I've never seen anything like this and I can't put a maker or color with it.  This is an older dish in perfect condition.  I found it in an old barn with other things.  The bowl part appears to be a frosted glass that's an orangish/yellowish color.  But the knob on top and the pedestal is the same color but in colored glass.  I'm not sure if this would be considered amber in color.  Any ideas on who the maker is or what color this would be considered?  Thanks for your help.

Are you in the USA, because I would guess it's American and a candy box? The glass is all the same colour; it's just that some of it has been acid treated to make it go frosted. Dimensions, a close up of the design and a base shot might help.

I don't have it with me but would have a pretty accurate guess of it being about 7 1/2 inches high and the dish holder is about 6 inches wide.  The glass is in 4 seperate pieces (if that helps).  I am in the US but am in a heavily populated area that would incorporate alot of older men who would have served in the military and possibly brought things back from overseas.  Thanks for your help.  Can you tell what color this would be classified as?

[Lustrousstone]

Difficult to tell, could be pink/peach. A completely white background might help. Do you mean it comes apart into four peices? If so can we have pictures please. It's not the sort of style that's common in Europe

No, it doesn't come apart.  I was just trying to say that the glass is not all one piece.  When it was built the manufacturer assembled each side together to make the dish itself.  Unlike my blue glass piece I have listed on here, it's all one piece of glassware.

Nothing was assembled; it was made in a four part mould, i.e., a big gob of glass is pressed into a mould with a plunger and then the plunger is removed and the mould opens up into four pieces to leave you with one piece of glass that shows four seams.

The jar is probably mould blown, which is why it has no seams.

A better look at the pattern would be nice. It almost looks like a milk glass version of Westmorelands King's Crown, but I don't think that was done in this type of glass. We'd need to see the pattern better.

 :hi: Hi not sure but it kinda looks the same as the one I have here (style) but mine is a different color.

Is it a Jeanette Wedding Box?  [LINK REMOVED]

The only way I know this is from my item....so this is still a wild guess here by a Novice.  :spls:

I can't tell either Rose; this one looks less complicated at the bottom.
