David E:
IMPORTANT CHANGES TO SITE:

Due to the rapid growth of the Chance glass side within glassyeye.com, I decided to create a whole new web site purely to contain the research into this subject. The URL is now...

http://www.chanceglass.net

I think you'll find the site MUCH easier to navigate and the pages have been slimmed out more. It has also meant that the menu can now be far more specific, so each major topic has been split further (all Pressed glass styles into its own page, for example).

Thankfully (huge sighs of relief all round!) all patterns are now identified:

1934: Spiderweb
1948: Lotus
1949: Waverely
1949: Britannia
1951: Gossamer
1951: Lancer
1952: Cato

David E:
For the missing two pattern examples I now have a description:

LANCER: The Pattern is based on horizontal and vertical ridges forming oblongs with rounded corners.

GOSSAMER: "... a design of fine tracery". Broadfield House have an exhibit so this is less of a problem.

Beautiful new word David, presumably diminutive oblongs.    Nice try, nearly up to the standard of the Bensonic "knobberly".

Bernard C:
David — Phew, lucky Lancer was made in Smethwick and not Sunderland, otherwise you would have had Jobling's oblings.
