    Good morning, glassies.

    @shellyrae37 SHELLY ... I don't like the white spots on the photos where the light is reflected and I don't think the details of the patterns show up as I want them to. Might use them anyway, but not for sure.

    @itsagas BILL ... Yes, I have the Lechner's book and originally thought it was by Consolidated. But Brad Gougeon did "corrections and notes" on the books that are posted on Antique Glass Salt and Sugar Shakers Facebook site. He states that both Beads and Bulges AND Beaded Panel, Vertical were attributed by Lechner to Consolidated with no documentation.

    Now I posted it on the FB page because my references don't say it was made in this sea foam green. This is what Brad had to say. " ' The attribution to Consolidated may have some basis. It is believed that Nicholas Kopp came up with the formulation for "pigeon's blood red". He worked for Consolidated up to 1899 when he left to form his own company, the Kopp Glass Co. This company then, in late 1901, merged with Pittsburgh Lamp and Brass Co. and Dithridge & Co. to form Pittsburgh Lamp, Brass & Glass Company (sometimes shortened to Pilabrasgo or Pilbrasgo) so it could have been made by any of the three companies he was associated with or.......... another company who copied or figured out the formula required to make this color.'

    HI to WENDY, DON, and CARL!
