THIS AUCTION IS FOR THIS SOWERBY "HOBSTAR AND CUT TRIANGLES IN AQUA CARNIVAL GLASS. THIS IS A VERY SCARCE COLOUR FOR THIS PATTERN. DOTY'S WEBSITE DOESN'T MENTION THIS PATTERN IN AQUA AND YOU WONT FIND IT LISTED IN MANY OF THE BOOKS ON CARNIVAL GLASS EITHER. IF YOU LIKE PATTERNS IN UNUSUAL COLOURS THEN HERE YOU GO...... MEASURES APPROX. 8 INCHES ACROSS AND IS JUST UNDER 3 INCHES DEEP. A DIFFERENT COLOUR TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION. IN GOOD CONDITION. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF MINOR CHIPS TO THE BASE.LOOKING AT THEM I THINK THAT IT IS QUITE LIKELY THAT THIS IS HOW IT CAME OUT OF THE MOULD. THE TOP RIM OF THE BOWL IS PERFECT. THE IRIDESCENCE ON THE INSIDE OF THE BOWL,ON THE BASE,IS STRONGER ON ONE HALF. THE OTHER HALF ALLOWS THE AQUA BASE COLOUR TO SHOW THROUGH MORE. MOST CARNIVAL GLASS WILL HAVE BUBBLES AND/OR STRAWMARKS.THESE ARE ACCEPTED AS JUST BEING A PART OF THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF OLD GLASS. THIS IS A HEAVY PIECE OF GLASS.HENCE POSTAGE. FOR UK BUYERS I HAVE QUOTED STANDARD PARCELS ,BUT IF ONCE PACKED,I FIND THAT I CAN SEND IT 1st CLASS FOR THIS PRICE THEN I WILL DO SO. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK. PLEASE VIEW MY OTHER ITEMS FOR MORE PIECES OF CARNIVAL GLASS AS WELL AS OTHER COLLECTABLES AND SOME GREAT CD'S. N.B. OVERSEAS BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE THAT THE POSTAGE QUOTED IS ONLY AN ESTIMATE.IF YOU WIN THIS PIECE WILL YOU read more
