Title: Any vintage/antique glass experts out there? Help with this bowl!
Post by: joemg311 on June 23, 2014, 05:02:43 PM
Another church rummage sale find. This glass bowl measures about 10'' in diameter.  Any clues as to the age or maker? How would you describe the handles? I'm somewhat young and new to antiques and the likes but this looked pretty unique to me. Does the little bit of wavy glass mean this is pretty old? Thanks again all you intelligent, beautiful and kind folks  :D.

Even though I'm "vintage / antique" myself, I'm not a glass expert by any definition. ;)
But I do recognize Fostoria at times. Nice find!

Rauville is too modest !!  He is one of the best !!   And they are scrolled handles !!

Ahh yes scrolled! I would have been to find it myself on ebay if I was smart enough to figure that out  :D There I was searching for spiral and everything else I could think of besides scroll.
