Title: Emerald Green Diamond Cut Decanters Maker Help
Post by: DANTE5 on January 14, 2019, 08:57:07 am

Hi everyone,

I need help from our glass experts on board.  These beautiful decanter has thrown me for a loop.  I need help identifying the maker if possible.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Picked them up at the Goodwill in Georgia.  Measuring approximately 8" x 3" (square) no stopper.  Thanks in advance.

Believe you would call this a hobnail pattern on the glass.

Hi KC...

Thank you for your reply.  Maybe the image in photos look like little bumps, but they are actually deep cut diamond shapes.  I thought hobnail glass would be like little balls (bumps)? I appreciate your observation.

Some patterns are referred to as English Hobnail but are a diamond pattern !!  Not sure but check Imperial,, Indiana or Federal glass !!  Think these are from mid century or around that time period !!  I had a very similar clear one,, also without the stopper,, but it was a while back !!

Thanks Mart/KC.....I believe we have a winner.....After searching as you suggested Mart for English hobnail, I found similar with Westmoreland Glass!
Way to go!  Thanks again, I always learn so much from you guys. :)
