I have spent the last hour and a half looking for the maker of a candy dish I bought. I did find one like it on rubylane.com but they didn't say who the maker waw. The one they show is in amber and priced at $110. The one I bought is forest/emerald green so it should be worth more I would think. It is pressed glass and in an art deco style. I have looked on ebay and tias.com coming up empty. I know I saw one like it on tias.com a few weeks ago but can't find it again. I also looked in a book I have on depression glass but nothing. If anyone has an idea of where to look please let me know.
Thanks

Thanks for offering. I just needed a place to look but someone may know where I can search after looking at the pics.

Very pretty! Can't help you on the maker, but it almost looks like a boudoir/dressing table item--could it hold scented talcum powder and a powder puff?? The handle on the lid just reminds me of such things.

It is a tri-divided (inside) candy dish. I wish in a way that it wasn't divided so it could be used as a powder dish.

Let us know when you put it up. This would be great on a dresser for jewelry, etc. I often just toss it on the dresser and put it away later at the end of the day. Would be great to have a divided dish to toss it into. Could save an earring or two from becoming lost!

Just checked out your auctions and your photos are awesome! Love the jewelry you sell. Actually everything about your website is wonderful. You really do a great job.

Thanks, paws4god. I try. In fact, I spend so much time doing it I drive my family crazy. They make appointments to see me. I just spent half the day trying to photograph rhinestones. Brother, what a test of my patience!

Cheryl: I agree that photographing rhinestones is the hardest thing! I just sold a pair of rhinestone shoe clips for a pittance--but taking the pictures took me a while for sure. I finally shined a very bright light on them and held my camera very still. Better than nothing.
I've been watching QVC jewelry shows to see how they "pose" jewelry. Enlightening; I"ve gotten some ideas from doing that.
