? neodymium jug and glass set.
« on: July 09, 2015, 02:22:48 AM »
I can'T figure if this is pressed glass. I don't think so as I cant find a seam. I bought it from an estate. I have been looking for ages and the closest I have got is it is neodymium which is great, but I am bluffed as to the maker. Any help would be so appreciated even if it what it isnt.

It's mould blown (but mould blown items can still have seams). You can't press something that is narrower at the top because you can't pull the plunger out. Does it change colour between an old-fashioned incandescent light and a modern fluorescent one from purple to blue/green? If not, it's not neodymium glass

At the risk of sounding dumb so the pattern on the front would be part of the mould.  Do you know who makes this / Its is neodymium.

The pattern is engraved on the glass afterwards
