Do not ask me why, but when I first saw it I though of Davidson or Imperial, or Indiana ??? and that is mostly likely so far in LEFT field, I am off the Globe.  I will keep it in mind here, as I am sure I have saw this before.........I think  :-\

Why do I keep thinking Diamond Point ?????????  Is that left field too ???

Hi there.  I know why I was thinking Diamond Point, because of this item:  http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,34981.0.html  .  Glad to see TxSilver was thinking along the same line.

The one that rosieposie found (in green) does look the same, even though we can not be sure of that attribution there, but funny they also call it a Diamond Point too.

Hmmm.....the search continues.  Must be something here on the Net, somewhere.  :wsh:

Thanks Ivo,  Italian, wow! I will do a 'trawl' today.

Rose, there is also a blue one identical shape on GMB, but still not identified.  I do like your gold banded jar though, very scrumptious!
I have discovered that looking for glass 'jug' gleans very little,  it has to be 'pitcher'..........

lol....pitcher, or water pitcher.  :thup:

If that fails, we might have to try to figure out *just* the tumblers first.  Maybe there is more info on the Net about the tumblers (glasses, water glasses).  So many *different tag* words to try.... :thud:

@ Keith:  Can we see a bottom pic of the Tumblers?  thanks

There are some red goblets attributed to Jeanette on eBay (#370238916459). I can't see the diamond quilt very well on the eBay ones, but the feet look heavy. The heavy glass and base of yours definitely excludes Imperial or Indiana. Jeanette often had some creative bases, so it is a possibility. Rosieposie mentioned it a few messages ago.

Here's a picture of some red Jeanette goblets and a pitcher. http://www.replacements.com/webquote/JEGDIPRU.htm. You have to click the link at the bottom to see the pitcher. It looks like yours to me.

At least I was right  :spls:  :spls2: about the Diamond Point term  :-\ , but getting so mixed up on all the types of glass.  At least one thing stuck in my head, and did not fall out...:24: :24: :24:  about the Diamond point term.  So much to learn, so little of time...

WTG Rosie, your much smarter than me  :girlcheer:   :hiclp: and TxSilver for finding that info  :hiclp:

No, not smarter than you Rose,  just a lucky hunch!!

I have some Jeannette glass (I think it is 2 n's BTW) but not in this style.

Now will you all have a look at all my unsolved ones and find the makers for me.....please.

Have we really got a definative answer Keith?  Are we assuming that the eBay listing is 100% acurate?
Yours is the same as theirs,  but can we be certain that it is Jeannette Glass? Is there a Jeannette Glass catalogue with it described in??

Perhaps we had better not count our chickens yet........................... :thud:

I think it is 2'n's  in Jeannette by the way...........
