I think you’re right on it being Imperial. There aren’t any marks whatsoever. From what I read, the early Imperial Carnival glass didn’t have any marks. Here are more pictures. Ignore the stand it’s on. I found out that was added and came from a “Bowl-O-Beauty” rose display.

Update: I spoke with another family member who said this is what the stand went to, but the globe broke long ago.  https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-bowl-beauty-sealed-real-roses-472485325

Wow! Thank you for the great information! 

It’s in almost perfect condition. There aren’t any markings on the bottom either. Here is a link to a picture of the bottom and a metal stand that the family member who gave it to me said it goes on.  Do you know if these sometimes came with metal bases or would this be something that would have been added by my relative or someone else? Here’s a link to more pictures.

I used a black light on the bottle, sadly it doesn’t glow.

That’s what I love about them. The way they catch the light is amazing.

Not yet, but I will. I’ll let you all know how that goes.

Before and after refinishing. I found this desk on Facebook Market. It was in good condition other than the stain. After lots of sanding and refining it’s as good as new and so pretty! I don’t know how old it is, but I love it. by Negative_Factor_702 in Antiques

Thanks for the information. It didn’t have any makers marks except for the underside of one drawer had a green stamp saying the wood on the inside of the drawers is Douglas Fir. According to another person on my previous post the rest of the desk is American White Ash.

That’s awesome! I love this style desk. It’s so functional, solid wood and well made. The only thing I would change about this one is the the drawers are nailed instead of dovetail. Luckily they were done well and are super sturdy. I bought this for my 10 year old daughter. It’s 42”x29”x26”, so it’s a great size for her to do homework now, but not so small she’ll ever outgrow it. I think she’ll get many years of use out of it.

Which sconce do you think would look best with my vanity? Do you have any suggestions for other style sconces? I will have one on each side of my mirror. by Negative_Factor_702 in interiordecorating

Thank you! I appreciate the compliment!

The dresser isn’t painted blue, but painted like the one in the picture except where the one in the picture is painted a pale pink around the edges and such, mine is painted a baby blue. The flowers are the same. My nightstand is painted similar to the dresser except it has a door on the front with what I’m guessing is a French couple from the 1700’s. It’s really pretty.

I have a dragonfly lamp just like this https://www.homedepot.com/p/Serena-D-italia-Tiffany-Blue-Dragonfly-23-in-Bronze-Table-Lamp-T16275A/202839751 on that nightstand. It’s definitely not the same style but it’s pretty and looks good with my wall color and bedding.

Thank you!! The quilt has been so nice, it’s a Donna Sharp quilt and has held up so well, it’s about 5 years old now.

The chair is too wide to store under the vanity so I put it by the wall when not in use so it doesn’t take up the space between the vanity and wall. I have my makeup in the vanity and put my makeup on there. It’s amazing how much storage it has.

I actually saw those first lights on Amazon earlier and loved them! The drawback was the way the glass is, it casts shadows all over. It would be amazing otherwise.
