Featured Federal and Jeannette Glass Dates

I picked up a couple of pieces of pretty glass, but there is absolutely no consistency on dates on the web. I am hoping for some insights here. Can anyone help?

• Jeannette Poodle Covered Dish. Has a mark, but not like one that I could find anywhere. Or is it a copy?

• Federal Iridescent Petal Dish - 9 inches. This is so beautiful in person. The glass is so polished, it feels like silk. I love glass with this feel. The iridescence springs off the bowl. When was this produced?

Any assistance is so appreciated.

 

I believe you 2nd one is Federal Celestial. I'm thinking 1960s or so.

I don't see a mark on the Jeannette powder box but I believe these were 1960s also

 

Celestial. I like that. I saw some with a 1960's date. I think they came from the same donation, so 1960s make sense for both. Thank you.

 

You're welcome

 

Haven't seen that poodle before. Mostly see deer.

 

Many items by Jeannette were never marked IMHO. I have lots of the makers depression glass and most have no markings. I think my delphite coffee canister may have a J on the base but I can't remember.

Is this yours? For reference only. I think it is a vanity item.

It was only on the shelf for a few minutes, when I spotted it. Otherwise, I would never have seen one either.

 

That's the puppy (pun intended). I did some research before posting and found Jeannette marks, but the only thing I found were the dots. Interesting that depression glass was not marked. I can't tell which is real, so while they have pieces all the time, I don't buy it. Thank you.

 

Perfect. This will have to go into my permanent collection then- carnival and possible depression all in one piece. Thank you.

 

Here is a link which might help with markings on depression glassware like Jeanette.
I have a ton of their glassware here and I would say maybe 3 pieces if that many are stamped or marked.
What a cute find.. I love poodles.

Thank you. I added this page to my favorites. I have been fooled so many times on EAPG and ABP glass at first, I am very wary now. They have several pieces of Depression looking glass in all shapes, colors, etc. I look for wear, but other than that . . ..

 

Good information . I just so happen to be going to an auction in a week where they have the deer, poodle and one other that i could not tell from the pictures. Those three are the main reason I am going. Plus it is right around the corner from my house! I will let you know if I pick them up.

 

Great. Will be happy to see what you get. Please post some pictures.

 

Kiko I am terrible at EAPG and ABP glass. I don't even dabble in depression glass that is see thru but has a color to it because the patterns drive me nuts.

I stuck with McKee, Jeannette in mostly delphite and jadite for my collection. There are so many repro's now, but when I started there were so few of them.
I still can not tell the difference between a Fire King Jadite vintage scalloped top flower vase and the new ones.
Unless the color is so off or looks odd, than I know it is not old.
I will say this, I see many of the repro's selling for more than the vintage ones.

 

I hear you. But I love the learning process, and I don't buy (mostly) too dear. I, too, am overwhelmed at Depression glass. I haven't seen anything except red, pink and green in the wild.
I buy to own, but I'm going to have to start selling off some things, because after four years of hanging around here, my shelves are full.

 

When I used to go to auctions, I saw the Deer example all the time. It was the most common. The Poodle I've seem from time to time but not often. The 3rd one was a donkey and that one, I've never seen in person that I can remember). @Lark Be sure to check their ears, as they are often chipped. On the Poodle and the Donkey, I would get it anyway because they're harder to find (if the chip isn't too bad and the color is good). If you see a chip, be sure to loudly exclaim "Oh! This one is chipped, what a shame!" *LOL*

 

Red Depression glass depending on the pattern can be a very good thing.

Wow. I had no idea. There was a small piece in red. If it there I'll pick it up tomorrow.

 

I want the swan.
