I am pretty proud of myself. I guess I have learned something from being on this board for awhile. Anyway, this is the last piece I have no idea who makes it. If it's junk, so be it. It measures 9 inches across and this is heavy think glass. Stretch glass maybe?

It might be vaseline glass. Do you have a black light? Very pretty dish, not junk in my book. You did good this weekend.

Thanks Libra! I think I have a black light somewhere. It isnt florencent, just a light bulb. Will that work?

hi paloma! ... i found that EXACT glass dish, along with a center smaller bowl that sets in the center, and mine is in light yellow glass ... it had its original foil label on it that referred to some type of lead crystal [which i remembered surprised me, being yellow... i would have thought depression glass] ...

sorry i took the label off and don't remember [because i used it for 4th of july picnic relish tray, carrots and dip]... it was a silver foil label with black lettering and i only remember that it said '24% lead crystal' [and i didn't recognize the makers' name on it] ... the label did not look "old", but maybe vintage 60s or 70s ... [which as i said, bummed me out just a little bit 'cuz my first thought as seeing it at the estate sale was, "Ooooo, yellow depression glass!... not" ... but it was still so pretty that i decided to buy it for myself, because it was priced at $10 ... I really do like it ...

Thanks to all three of you. You are right! It's exact except for the color! is yours about 9 inches across as well?
