Green Dragon & Lotus pattern footed bowl (Carnival)

<< < (2/2)

Pip:
Thank you BOTH  ;D  Hubby decided to go and get it anyway before we had the benefit of your replies but I'm much relieved to read the information given.  We see quite a lot of Carnival glass out and about and decided it would be a good thing for us to learn a little about it.  This wasn't a huge outlay so even if it turns out to be utter rubbish we've not wasted too much money.

If you care to take a look I'll post some photos of it in a min (just got to take my daughter to bed) - thanks again Glen & Marcus for answering - brb with piccies....

Pip:
here it is (piccies taken very hurriedly in the kitchen - apologies for the quality)...

There's no damage or missing irridescence that I can see ...

Glen:
It's a lovely example, Pip - a spatula footed, ruffled bowl. A real bargain. Congrats, and many thanks for showing us the photos too.

Pip:
NP, thank you so much for you help - this is our first bit of CG so it's been a very useful exercise to get a feel for it.  I must admit that although this isn't our usual area it's a highly decorative piece and I'm beginning to appreciate why so many people collect it.  I'll ensure that you and your website Glen, and the GMB get an acknowledgment when I list it for sale (OH won't let me start collections of anything - he knows I get totally out of control!).  I had a huge art deco pottery collection when we first met and it took him 15 years to get me to part with it  ::)
