Black amethyst creamer
« on: March 18, 2013, 11:45:10 am »
Happy belated St. Patrick's Day! Or if you're Finnish like me, St. Urho's Day!

Hope you all are doing well. I have another piece of mystery glassware and thought I'd try my luck here.
It's a black glass creamer and when held up to the light you can see the amethyst color shine through. It's got a silver (silver oxide?) scroll decoration and a starburst bottom. It's about 3 inches tall.

As always, any and all help is very much appreciated!

Could be L.E Smith,, or Anchor Hocking !!  AH made black amethyst in the 50`s and 60`s and that starburst bottom makes me think that it may be theirs !!   Haven`t  looked yet !!

Thanks, Mart. I've looked in my Anchor Hocking book but it's not in there. Of course it could still be theirs. I'm only seeing footed ones with the black and silver though.

Yeah I've seen the Ovide ones, just can't find one that's not footed.

Hm, seems unlikely :/

As for the man with the know it all book up his bottom, does he have a hotline I can call? Because that would be useful...
