The first pictures are of what I think is called an open compote. I put this up years ago and was told that it COULD be a George Duncan and Sons but that there are many fakes out there. It stands a smidgen over 7 7/8 inches and 7 1/4 across. I was shocked to see how all the scratching showed up in the picture, it's barely noticeable when I look at it. Then I see it sure could use a good cleaning! Sorry
I keep modifying this! This seems to have a few names: Three graces, three faces and I read one called three sisters.
Hubby's great aunt came from a rough and tumble family but married into a wealthy family. I imagine these were well used. I remember coming here in my late teens to help her at family gatherings and trying to be so careful with her things. She used to laugh at me saying: What's the point of having it, if you don't use it. If something gets broken, oh well.
The next one (the bowl) doesn't look very old. Vintage maybe? I have read if glass has a line up it, it can't be very old. Is this something I could safely part with?
It's a bit over 6 3/4 tall. 5 1/4 diameter. (inches)
The cake or pastry stand doesn't look old at all (to me). I am keeping it anyway because I bake. It has to be over 24 years because that is how long I have been coming to the house.
It's a bit over 6 3/4 inches tall and 9 3/8 inches in diameter.
Just want to see if I am learning here (on the right track at least).
Thanks for any input!
