I really like it as well.  We all get a little worn in areas over time....adds character!!!  :)
AND some of us have a little more character than others!! LOL

Yea I like the looks as is, Gives character and shows the age well.   Items are hard to sell with plate loss, but family and friends will love it on the table filled with Cranberries.  ;)

Wayward... Thought you'd like to know I ended up going with an orangish bowl.  I found a piece of carnival looking glass yesterday at GW and it was translucent orange just like you suggested.  It looks good - doesn't fit well but looks great with the silver/copper - far better than the bright orange I had.

You were right  ;D

ETA:  Ha!!  Found it on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/MARIGOLD-CARNIVAL-BOWL-/250728523328?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a6095a640  Think I'm going to have to buy one with ruffles tho...  I'm a sucker for wavy glass!

@Oceans64: I'm with you on the wavy glass. It has such a different feel to it than modern glass, doesn't it? Impossible to describe, but it's a distinctly different feel when you hold rolled and pressed glass vs. molded. Love the stuff! Can you take a photo of the two pieces together just for fun? I love seeing everybody's cool stuff, LOL!

Yeah..  Wavy glass is my fav - esp colored as it catches light so well.

Here is the glass I bought last minute at GW.  It's pretty enough but as you can see it doesn't sit well in the basket.  I think a wide wavy piece with a shallow bottom (like 2" or so) would look nice.  Am thinking I can display my Poupee in it but some of the glass I have seen is almost too pretty to cover up!!  LOL
