American Cube Variant?
« on: May 13, 2015, 03:48:22 PM »
Dear Glassmessagers,

now this is unusual. I have many fostoria american cube pieces however I have only ever found two with this " shaded cube " on the underside of the cube. It has 20 petals to the base and that's as far as I have right now. Jeanette or American Whitehall possibly?

Would any of you be able to shed some light on it's origins etc?

With kind regards

Andrew

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

Pamela,

fyi I do believe this vase you have may be by Barolac.
