Glass / Re: Amethyst, mould blown bowl.
« Last post by Ekimp on Today at 09:27:26 AM »The bowl in cagney’s first link above looks like it is probably nipt-diamond rather than from a diamond patterned mould. On the bottom rows of diamonds, it looks like there are pinch marks where the diamonds join adjacent diamonds in the row.

« Last post by cagney on Today at 06:02:29 AM » The ten diamond molding of this type [ sometimes termed a quilted diamond] does not seem that common. No shortage of the ten diamond over pointed flutes in the same manner. I think in lead glass most likely English. Could be the twin of your bowl in this link https://jeffreysevans.com/auction/pattern-molded-diamond-bowl/ and a wine rinserhttps://jeffreysevans.com/auction/pattern-molded-diamond-wine-rinser/

USA / Re: Sandwich Blown, Cut and Engraved Sugar Bowl, about 1870, for show
« Last post by cagney on Today at 05:22:38 AM » I feel very fortunate to have come across it. To my knowledge a one of a kind piece. The engraving makes it quite special. Good eye "m".

Glass / Re: Victorian Glass Vase Raspberry Pontil S&W Rockingham / Thomas Webb OR Walsh
« Last post by flying free on Today at 01:23:02 AM »Report in the Pottery and Glass Trades' Journal from June 1879 intimating that Mr O'Fallon had 'recently' joined Messrs. Webb:
https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Pottery_Glass_Trades_Journal/hyUGAAAAQAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=glass+Davenport+Fleet-street&pg=RA1-PA197&printsec=frontcover
Not entirely sure how many journals are printed in this online version but this is page 96 under June 1879.
So I'd say the date of this jug is still in question, or the designer:

Glass / Re: Amethyst, mould blown bowl.
« Last post by essi on Yesterday at 08:17:40 PM »Thanks for the pictures of the bowl and the footed bowl, such strong similarities with my bowl.
Cagney, you must have an encyclopedic mind when it comes to recalling images you have seen.
I wonder if the bowls are US produced or European?.
To my eye it seems the bubble was blown into the mould but then hot worked.
I say this because the diamonds in the pattern seem to be slightly elongated in the middle and compressed at the base.
This is just pure conjecture.
Ekimp the mould lines in all directions seem rather strong and i cant see any evidence of that nipping process.
Thanks again,
Tim
