Re: Cut Glass Bowl

Would love to know the pattern, or anything about the bowl. No markings on it.

Re: Cut Glass Bowl

Your bowl is not cut glass, it's pressed.

Re: Cut Glass Bowl

Can you explain how to tell the difference? I realize I need to look for a seam but is there a way to tell when you're out 'garage selling'? Thanx!

Re: Cut Glass Bowl

Your photograph shows a pinwheel with hobstar center motif, X-Cuts dividing the sections and a sawtooth edge. If your bowl is cut glass rather than pressed, the edges will be sharp to the touch. The glass of the Brilliant Period, 1880 to 1915 utilized these motifs (separate figures) and many others to create a pattern or design. I have a book, American Cut and Engraved Glass, by Martha Louise Swan, isbn 0-87069-713-7 that you might find interesting and helpful in identifying glass. Families are fortunate to have such beautiful pieces from someone who loved them. Congratulations.
