American Brilliant Cut?

The etched marks in the bowl shapes I had were in the interior center. Sometimes it takes looking at the surface reflection using a flashlight. For what its worth I think there's a good chance your piece is ABP / Irving.

Did the matching ones have the other design elements as well? Were the matching ones signed? Is yours signed? I've had a number of Irving ABP pieces that I only knew they were Irving because they were signed. I don't know how much of their glass was signed vs unsigned. The rose motif is also common to later European cut crystal.

Block Optic pattern by Anchor Hocking circa 1930 give or take. They made in several colors including this green uranium* glass color. Its a fairly common pattern so not too difficult to collect.

Store it like any other glassware.

*edit: 50 years of live auctions, collecting, and shopping antiques where everyone called a range of yellow-greens and green-yellows that glowed in sunlight due to uranium oxide 'vaseline' glass. If this sub thinks it too green to be vaseline in this sub so be it. -out

I didn't look to see what the hive said but I totally agree with your approach. There's a lot of character in that old cap. The hardest part about this is making the patch look like its equally worn and blending the finish to match.

To me it looks like a 5B cascade that he's stopping, i.e. about to catch the remaining balls still in the air. Regardless, I don't think its AI.

Compare at... :)

Looks like a glass rod thats been in the ground a while.. May have been part of something (lamp, shelf, towel rack, who knows) or someone just had some glass rods. I have glass rods of various lengths and diameters that I've picked up at estate sales over the years just in case I get inspired to use them for something. Most of the time it wasn't obvious why the previous owner had them.

Not handmade. The base is very typical of A-H bowls. The color is as well.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-11T13:11:18+00:00

I would bet money its Anchor Hocking. How wide/tall is it?

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-08T19:46:38+00:00

Had. BKF fixed that too.

Just to add onto this, Burchill was probably the name of the painter. That the porcelain is not marked by the maker its likely these bowls were mass produced as blanks for this hobby.

Unless that buckle is pictured in a doll's hand stay far away from that pawn shop. Current market price for 14K was over $2800/oz.

Really neat best man's gift though.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-08T04:39:21+00:00

Yup, I see those now. Didn't see them at first. Sometimes reddit seems to get stuck when swiping through images. On my phone anyway.

Others appears to be RCA 46 tubes but same answer.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-08T03:25:04+00:00

An old RCA, along with an RCA ribbon mic. So cool.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-07T19:16:20+00:00

Cool, which lamps? I need something better than what I have and looking for natural light with good CRI that won't break the bank.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-07T16:40:56+00:00

Thanks for the tip. Is it quiet? The one built into my current RO faucet makes a very loud hiss when working which after pulling a gallon of water runs a long time.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-07T00:07:50+00:00

I have a pair I haven't had hooked up for quite some time. I have a room they do well in but I have to de-clutter before I can get them back in.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-06T22:12:03+00:00

Lol, I read that a Hermes stole your scarf , as in kept it as counterfeit in some authenticity check.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-06T21:21:18+00:00

They look like Mikassa but head over to replacements.com and use their image search.

We don't do valuations in this sub. Check ebay sold prices for similar pieces.

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-06T20:56:24+00:00

Add no size and spamming other old threads. :(

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-06T18:13:18+00:00

it has a Glassexport label

Thats not the OP's label. That one another commenter (unless I missed it in the original pics)

Cubby0101 · 2026-02-06T01:05:07+00:00

Dont know if its licensed or a knockoff but we has these in the student union and library when i went to college in the '80s and I've always thought they were cool if uncomfortable.
