Bernsdorf, but is it technically Carnival glass?
« on: July 09, 2016, 01:02:33 PM »

I know it's Bernsdorf, as I found it on Pamela's site, (thank you, Pamela  :-* ), but as only the fish is iridised, is it actually classed as Carnival? The glass itself is actually clear, but the iridisation makes the whole dish look peach  :-\

TIA,
Della

If I know, I'll comment. If I think I know, I'll have a go. If I have no idea, I'll just keep quiet and learn from others, so the next time I'll know.

Yes it's carnival but it's not Bernsdorf according to Glen, it's Polish and Golden Carp by Zabkowice.. Scroll down http://www.carnivalglassworldwide.com/golden-treasures.html

Thank you, both. I looked at Glen's site too  ::)

It must be an age thing! :P

It's a glasses thing, not an age thing, Della.
I don't admit to any age things - apart from what my age actually is, and that only because I enjoy the surprise that I made it this far, every time.
I didn't expect to make it beyond 30. ;D
