lobed undulating crystal bowl ID help...
So my 12 y.o. DD, of the amazing eye, finds this bowl among all the others at Goodwill. It has that certain vibrant "something", which definitely comes through when it's tapped, as well - beautiful long low resonating 'ping'. 3 even lobes that make a full circle from the top (I just took the pic below to capture the undulation), with a swirled underneath, no marks at all (a couple of little scratches). I'm thinking it might have been blown and the open end is somehow where the pontil was.
I can't find anything like this anywhere--closest I get is Whitefriars, but the shape from the top isn't the same.
Any ideas? TIA!
I have more pics if anyone's interested, but these were probably the two most important.
linda, you only see one pic? Which one? When I look, I see showing it from the side, slightly above, and one showing the ripply bottom of it as well. I wonder if you only get one because the pics are too big? I didn't realize how large they were when I posted them...
And I guess I'd like to know if it's a known maker or if it's another one-off, like that little crystal goblet with all the cuttings up and down the stem I posted a few months ago. I swear, it sounds like a bronze bell when I tap it. Amazing. Do you know of any company that wouldn't put any kind of etched mark on a piece like this? I remember the VSL glasses weren't marked either, I was just lucky I found them when searching with search terms. I've tried searching under 'lobed crystal bowl' but come up empty.
Ah, o.k., thanks for the info on the pics. The bottom is just swirly, that's all. If it was just a guy with glass, it was a talented guy with really high lead content glass, judging from the sound :)
but ah! I just figured it out! Your off-the-cuff comment made me realize--it was a mold it was blown into, not one with seams, though -- it was a roundish kind that made the lobes exactly evenly (I have another too-large pic that shows how even the lobes are, making thirds of a perfect circle). So it *could* be repeated, I imagine. The pontil must have been on the open side.
Please try to make that picture smaller.....and how about a picture of the bottom? That's where the punty rod would have been fastened.
What would have happened is....
A blower would get a gather of glass on the end of his pipe....and blown it and flipped and flopped it and blown and kept putting it back into the glory hole to keep it molten and when it got big enough, he would have let it cool just a bit, broken or cut it from the blow pipe and attached a punty rod to the closed end....then reheated it and twirled and worked it until it was flared and with tools worked it into lobes....
Then plunged it into the oil and broken it off of the punty....and fire polished the rim and polished the place on the bottom where the punty was attached.
I have spent hours at various places watching the glass blowers...most recently in Glassboro New Jersey...on av ery hot summer day!! LOL!

Here is a link that might be useful: blowing glass
linda, we have a rather strong tradition of glassblowing out in the PNW too, you know ;)
I'm used to evaluating pontils in various conditions (being a bit of a Blenkonian :)), but that was what I didn't understand about this piece--there's really no place a pontil could have been. It seems *smooth* and blown, as if it had been placed in a concave lobed mold and then the top part of the bowl was what was cut off. I could be wrong, but to me it definitely doesn't look polished or anything other than integrally part of the swirling.
I'll resize tonight when we get back and post smaller pics.
Sorry, I did some searching and haven't come up with much either. If you're feeling particularly ambitious you can check the Corning Museum of Glass. There is a lot there, and I haven't explored it, because my browser is giving me fits right now. I do see they have an extensive list of pieces by various creators and dates. (They have an Image View but I can't see any in my browser :/ )
Yeah....as I said...a little learning...etc .
Even mold blown glass can be carefully finished and will show no mold lines.
And higher lead content does NOT make a louder ding...
I'd be curious to see the store....but not going to add my click to the count.
Linda c
I dunno, I personally find Dean's input on various subject matter rather refreshing. He's definitely not hit-n-run. (psst, Dean, we're not supposed to post commercial links. ;)
Don't get the remarks being made about 'a little learning'... does that sentence end with 'can be a dangerous thing' ??
Lots of people are a little knowledgeable about a variety of things antique related. Doesn't make one more dangerous than the next. Even the best of pros out there will acknowledge they don't know everything and consult with or defer to colleagues with more refined expertise. Or be open-minded enough to share knowledge as a progressive means to get to the heart of the matter. Leads that are like stepping stones to the answers are a good thing, dickering over who's right just gets in the way. So in that regard, IMHO the more responses, the better!
I like this quote from the Chicago Appraisers Assn., when talking about their teamwork approach and utilizing their fellow members of the International Association of Art Historians if they get stuck. Always ask any appraiser you're considering hiring, how many people will do the research. "One man bands" don't cut it anymore.
Oh, I usually agree wholeheartedly with the 'more minds' approach, esp. after seeing the ant-colony exhibit at the local children's museum :), BUT I felt that Dean's comments were mostly meant to pique interest in his link, not really share substantive info. I hope I'm wrong. I really don't like it when people who have never just commented helpfully suddenly appear with comments and link to a site over multiple threads, though. *Bad form*. There are plenty of design professionals over on the HD and Baths fora who never link to their business or blogs or whatever else. People contribute here or don't; they don't contribute in order to advertise. Same with the JB Forum, and look at all the amazing high-level advice shared there, just for pure love of the craft. People can put links to their websites in their "page" descriptions, but linking in a thread is really 'not on'.
Back to the lovely bowl :)
I've seen completely 180 degree rounded wooden hollowed-out forms that could shape glass actually used about 10 ft in front of me, with no two-sided mold (and thus mold lines) necessary. I feel that that's what happened here. A lobed 180 degree/semi-spherical mold was made and the glass blown into it. It *could* be free, but the lobes are very regular in their irregularity (i.e. all the same but very loose), so either someone who's really perfect with free-form blowing OR a form to start the shape with was used.
I'll not disagree w/your first paragraph. Maybe he just didn't read the rules well at sign up. Hopefully it's nothing more than that.
Wooden bowl as a starter mold is an interesting theory!
Oh, and before I forget, it's a really pretty bowl, so unique! (I did compliment the other day on it but that's when gremlins swallowed up half of GW content.) Just out of curiosity, are you in an area with a lot of artists?
Yes, that must be it -- he didn't read the rules. Harebell did, though. Can't wait to see the replies to that thread. I can't reply since I'm not a pro, but maybe Dean could get a clue as to how things work here on that thread.
Thanks for the kind words on the bowl. Yes, I live in the PNW, suburbs of Portland, Oregon--an extremely artistic/craftish area, long tradition of glassblowing on the coast (and in town too -- and Bullseye Glass is in town, with their galleries...), and west coast studio pottery, including the Museum of Contemporary Craft. Re that instigator thread: finding amazing older signed pots at Goodwill was the instigator. I knew I was seeing some really cool stuff, so I bought it and brought home and started learning. Now I'm hooked :), and already have the Oregon Potters Association Ceramic Showcase on my mental calendar for the end of April :) I love glass too, got into it through mosaic and through the glassblowers on the coast.
(oh--the same weekend, in the same place, is a Glass showcase and a Woodworkers showcase...we have a strong tradition of woodworking here, too)
Here is a link that might be useful: a weekend of sheer delight
I just saw harebell's thread, glad it was started, I'll be interested in responses, too.
What a great event you have coming up! Now that would be fascinating! I checked out the showcase awards, very unique and creative. Are you going to watch any of the demonstrations they have on the schedule? I think I could really enjoy something like that. I've dabbled in all kinds of media and have wanted to take pottery classes for years but what's offered through our arts association is always too late at night for me. I'm so wiped out by the end of the day, I'd probably fall asleep at the pottery wheel. ;)
Since you're in artists colony area, I'm wondering if your bowl isn't a creation of one of the locals? I googled Dean's suggestions, found a piece that made me think of yours here. I hope this makes sense, side by side the two don't look the same, of course. But the two when compared to other pieces seem to share similar traits...minimalist yet the height of elegance. Kind of like how only Jackie O could wear a dress of simple clean lines, a strand of pearls and be stunning. Hope that makes sense! (I've just inhaled a hot glass of Starbuck's on this cold blustery snowing morning and am pretty sure I have a caffeine buzz lol) Just an aside, the Holmegaard site has some of the most interesting, delicate designs, I'm finding it quite captivating. Only one dealer in the U.S., tho, in Hot Springs AK.
Isn't it fascinating, moon? We went last year and watched Patrick Horsley's demo (it was at the same time last year--wonder if he has a standing spot there, given his stature in the community), DD made a little canopic jar for me [we'd just seen an exhibit on ancient Egypt and the animal-headed canopic jars really struck her] with a cat's head (it fell apart since it wasn't fired :( )...I think sometimes that I'm attracted to studio pottery because I *cannot* throw a pot to save my life. At least I couldn't when I had the best use of my hands back in high school, so I doubt anything has changed for the better :) I just LOVE the solidity/physicality of three-dimensional art, be it pottery, or glass, metal, or wood. And in light of the thread about the Kewpie doll, wanted to mention again that DD found this bowl, too, btw. She *does* have a good eye.
Oh Flyleft, how cruel of you to post that link! I'm in Vancouver BC and that is just not quite far enough away for distance to be a barrier to going. Pottery is my major weakness, probably the only one I'd actually travel for.
Oh, and I'll bite: if it isn't the lead, why does crystal ring in a way that other glass doesn't?
karin, come on down! I admit, my radar went off when I saw in the "name your poison" thread that you buy handmade pottery -- I've got a houseful that you could come play ID with if you come to the Ceramics Showcase :) Do you collect Canadian studio pottery? There's much beautiful work coming out of BC and that has come out in the past, but I try to restrict myself to the US PNW/CA. We'd have a blast at the Showcase, I know it.
And aren't you the person who said you collect baskets too? I think we have a lot in common...I have a soft spot in my heart for anything handmade (and preferably true amateur art), rather than manufactured things. Not exactly a growth industry :) Found a cool basket yesterday that has its handle anchored by little dowels slid into splits in the handles a ways down into the body of the basket. I've never seen that before.
Flyleft, I admit to being sorely tempted, and it would be fun to have a partner in crime. I hadn't looked south of the border at all until prepping for a recent trip to Seattle for another purpose, in November, hoping to find a few galleries or studios to visit en route down and back, and although I didn't end up getting to any, was impressed by some of what I saw. But... the credit card bills from December are just rolling in and it's property tax time... sigh. But I'll put in on my mental calendar and you never know, perhaps another reason for a trip will just suddenly materialize that weekend.
I don't like to claim expertise, particularly, even on the BC scene, although I think I basically know who's who. I am a regular at the local galleries and craft fairs and have allowed myself a few special pieces (now that my kids are less likely to break them), but my collection tends toward the budget end of the market. I might not be much help on the ID but I'd love to look!
And baskets... yup, that's me too. If it's a vessel of some sort I'm probably into it. I actually use baskets for grocery shopping a lot, so I have a practical excuse for buying them. Not that I need as many as I have. And I am often particularly intrigued by mixed materials so would probably have been competition for the basket you saw.
And thanks for clarifying on the crystal sound, Linda.
Hello all
I would like to reitterate about my earlier post regarding this bowl. Dear Linda C, you have stated in another post that you have never been a dealer so I would hope that you will refrain from suggesting that those of us who are active in the trade, are less than knowledgable about a variety of items. Any dealer of purveyer of fine glass / crystal will tell you that the heavier the content of Lead in the construction of a piece is relative to the ring it produces. Any cyrstal will ring when struck and those items over 33%PBO will have a clearer and cripser ring than those will lower lead content. Waterford Cyrstal is a typcial example as the Lead content is extremely high. So Linda, I would strongly suggest that you cease dismissing my comments and questioning my expertise as I find it offensive and quite amusing given that you have never been a dealer nor do you hold any qualifications as such. I appreciate your comments on items but your comments regarding my expertise and standing as an antiques and collectables dealer are not only offensive and belittling, but ill-directed. I will continue to post in these forums and provide only the very best reliable and thoroughly researched advice from previous experience and well-researched topics. Posting a link to my on-line shop was a mistake as I was not aware this was not an allowable thing to do. And by the way Linda, the hit count on my store is just fine thankyou. I must say that I would welcome you to visit our on-line store and I challenge you to prove the validity of what I have listed as being incorrect or unsubstantiated. If you can, then comments you make within this forum as a NON DEALER may have some substance and would be worth considering. My store has exceptionally exquisite and exclusive items which are all of the highest quality and of superb provenance. I would quite confidently state that unless you can provide irrefutable proof that what I am saying within this forum is totally incorrect and of no substance, then you cease and desist from snowballing my comments. What you are saying can indeed be deemed as slanderous and a personal attack and I would hate to think that you would keep going with your belittling comments with this in mind. This is a friendly, people based forum with EVERYONE able to post comments. I am proud to offer my extensive knowledge and expertise to others who are willing to learn and share what I have to offer. You are not the forum moderator, not an expert Antiques dealer so I will say no more other than your comments regarding my posts are ill-informed, malicous and quite self-righteous and it would be quite a disadvantage for you to continue the path you have criticising my expert comments. For all others in this forum, I am happy to answer any questions or provide any advice to you on any item you may have. Thanks very much and this a forum for EVERYONE, not just a single person who is dilluded in thinking that her opinions and non-professional ideas are gospel. I also appreciate input from others as none of us in the trade can say they know about every item they come across. I take offence to those who criticse others in an attempt to glorify themselves when in fact all they do, is cast a shadow of doubt as to their real itent or reasons for becoming part of forums such as these. I am proud to do what I do and will continue to offer iron clad advice if and when requested to do so.
Best regards to all
Thanks for the input on crystal and lead. (That's been driving me nuts!) I searched earlier when it came up trying to find info on lead content related to ringing sound, no luck. Just tried another search, changed my terms.
This is what enotes (educational site) has to say:
The Manufacturing Process...
...The lead adds density to the glass so it is heavier; this weight advantage over ordinary glass also changes the crystal's light diffraction properties and the sound or ring of the crystal when it is struck.
Not the concise answer I had been searching for, but it stands to reason if weight advantage due to lead changes the sound of the crystal when struck compared to glass, then higher lead content would create a more resonant ring. Shape of object probably has something to do with it too?
Puhleeze....the fact that I do not choose to be a shopkeeper no way diminishes my knowledge, nor does your decision to sell automatically enhance your knowledge.
33% is the maximum lead content in blown glass...Waterford has lead content between 24% and 33%, depending on the item. High lead content makes glass softer and easier to cut but also more fragile.
Lead content determines the length of resonance of the ring, size and shape determine the tone and loudness.
I see nothing in the bowl in question that suggests Orrefors, Kosta Boda or Holmgaard, I still think it's studio glass, likely from the PNW.

Poachers Can Be Shot, Officials In India Declare
Poachers caught hunting tigers in India's Maharashtra state are on notice that they could be shot on sight.
The Times of India says the "stern stand against poachers" means "if the forest officials fire upon the poachers injuring or killing them, the action will not be considered a crime." Prior to this week's announcement by state officials, those guards were subject to prosecution for such actions.
The newspaper adds that "Maharashtra forest minister Patangrao Kadam has asked forest guards to 'shoot at sight' if they see any poacher hunting or laying traps in tiger reserves."
According to The Associated Press:
"India faces intense international scrutiny over its tiger conservation, as it holds half of the world's estimated 3,200 tigers in dozens of wildlife reserves set up since the 1970s, when hunting was banned.
"Illegal poaching remains a stubborn and serious threat, with tiger parts in particular fetching high prices on the black market because of demand driven by traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
"According to the Wildlife Protection Society of India, 14 tigers have been killed by poachers in India so far this year — one more than in all of 2011."

Sensor's localization plays a very important role in wireless sensor networks, a new sensor localization approach with Ring Overlapping Based on Received Signal Strength Indicator (ROBRSSI) using three beacons is presented. Through the designing of error transforming and the collaboration between nodes, the effect of measurement error of RSSI on localization accuracy is restrained efficaciously, the requirement of the relative position between node and beacons is reduced and the node's precise localization is achieved. Then the localization of new comer who is added into WSN to compensate for the node fail to work is studied on the basis of ROBRSSI. Simulation results show that the location accuracy is well and the localization percentage is satisfactory; the localization method of new comer in WSN is efficient, which achieves precise localization.

By Ken Barnes, USA TODAY
He seldom wrote for himself, though he wrote three huge hits for others: Rubber Ball (Bobby Vee, 1960), Hello Mary Lou (Ricky Nelson, 1961) and He's a Rebel (Crystals, 1962). Instead, Pitney became one of the foremost interpreters of the era's top songwriters, most memorably with Burt Bacharach and Hal David's Twenty-Four Hours from Tulsa. He was also the first American to have a hit with a Mick Jagger/Keith Richard composition (1964's That Girl Belongs to Yesterday).
His material often verged on melodrama (Town Without Pity, (The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance and the bizarre Mecca), but only Orbison could match his knack for wrenching every drop of emotion from a song (Only Love Can Break a Heart, Last Chance to Turn Around).
Tour manager James Kelly told the Associated Press the cause of death was unknown but was a "very peaceful passing."
That Pitney was on tour was fitting. He was on the road constantly, often in the UK, where he had more top 10 hits than in the USA. But his 2002 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction was an overdue recognition at home for one of rock's unforgettable voices.

Data Centers
A bipartisan energy conservation bill easily passed by the House this week includes provisions to put federal data centers on a path to operating more efficiently.
The measure, which the House passed 375-36 on March 5, would require the Office of Management and Budget, the EPA and the Department of Energy to lead the development of standards for measuring data center performance, including adopting more advanced energy metering and power management tools, and optimizing the use of data centers so money and energy aren't wasted powering and cooling underutilized systems.
The bill, sponsored by West Virginia Republican David McKinley, also would require OMB to set a performance goal for agencies to evaluate their success in acquiring and using energy efficient IT, with the CIO Council charged with setting best practices for achieving the goals.
Under the bill, OMB would be required to update a 2007 report that is used as a baseline for energy efficiency. Additionally, the bill would create an open data project on federal IT energy use, to allow for businesses and innovators to come up with their own solutions for the problems of data center efficiency.
The data center provisions were introduced in February as a stand-alone measure by Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.). That bill was folded into the broader package of four measures that the House passed March 5.
"My legislation will save the federal government energy and money by requiring the use of energy-efficient and energy-saving technologies, specifically in federal data centers," Eshoo said in a statement, citing an estimate by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy that pegs cost savings from federal data center efficiency at $1.64 billion over 15 years.
Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) introduced a version of the data center bill in the Senate last June, but it has seen no action.

Even though DS (16 yrs) didn't think this had enough flavor, I'm giving it a 5 star rating. DH & I thought it was a nice change from my regular recipe & we both enjoyed it. The deciding factor between 4 & 5 stars though is that my toddler stayed at the table 10 minutes longer than anyone else, asking for more & more & more! DH was looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow but all that's left now is a little bit of meat. DD ate all the potatoes, all the celery (which she usually picks out) and all the carrots! :) Basically, if my picky eater will eat it, it's a keeper! This is a great comfort food recipe & I loved that it was made in the crockpot instead of on the stove. Thanks for sharing, Anne! Made & enjoyed for Spring 2009 Pick A Chef Orphanage.
My Dh and I debated about whether it was a 4 or 5 star. I decided to give it 5 because it is so easy and didn't require any added oil. I didn't have to brown the meat first and I liked that. Most of my kids ate it up so that's always a winner. Thanks.

The bread is great quality i'm sure if you like pumpernickel its great, I thought I did but maybe this is just a little to natural for my blood its really strong and over powering.
Great toasted with eggs
Posted by 5428432667268829540 on Aug 16, 2014
This is a tasty bread that gives good energy (no wheat crash typical of many processed breads). Though it is excellent simply spread with nut butter or eaten on its own, my preferred way to eat this is to pan fry it in olive oil, a pinch of salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg and eat on its own or with some fried vegetables and eggs. I reserve one star because I am skeptical of the processing that the bread must undergo to achieve such a long shelf life - it's too good to be true, and thus can't achieve the 5-star rating that fresh bread does.
Tasty but
Posted by 5143800280924132470 on Nov 05, 2014
I wish the rye kernels were still whole. Just a very picky request however, I like how most pumpernickel is chewy, this one lacked a little bit of chew.

The Washington Redskins had a spirited crowd yesterday at FedExField for the 2013 season opener, but an early deficit was too much to overcome as they fell to the Philadelphia Eagles 33-27.
The game was a tale of two halves, as they struggled against the Eagles offense early and couldn't garnish enough yardage on drives to gain first downs. In the second half, however, the Redskins dominated time of possession and scored the final 20 points of the game.
The lone bright spot from the first quarter came courtesy of veteran cornerback DeAngelo Hall. On ... Read More

A half-century ago, after Russia jolted Americans by sending Sputnik

designed to help the United States leap-frog the frontiers of
technology by doling out millions of dollars for research on radically
new ideas.

For airline passengers, the attempted Christmas Day attack and a directive by
President Obama to pursue advanced screening technology will certainly mean added security procedures at airports. So for high-tech companies, the increased focus on airport security means new opportunities to land hefty government contracts.

considering selling
Hi, all,
I'm in the piedmont of NC and am thinking of putting the house on the market. Can anyone advise me if one particular season is better than another? I have several projects that will need to be done to put the house in show condition, so I will miss the spring market. Is it worth waiting until next spring (I have the time), if I can get it in top form?
Although Carolina is not my area, in general, if the home buying market is for families with school-aged children, the market for homes generally stays strong until around the time the fall school year begins. If your target market is couples, many areas can stretch until around mid-to-late September. But there are quirks in many markets. You can check for how sales ran last year to get a better idea of your local trend.
Carolina Kate,
I usually advise my clients to sell when the time is right for them, and then play the market as a second priority. The thing with waiting until Spring to sell because that is when there are more buyers out, is that there are a lot more sellers out on the market too! It is pretty much a wash, oddswise.
If you are close to the Charlotte area, I can run those #s for you.

Sam Riley has acted with two of the biggest box office [and tabloid] sensations of the decade – Angelina Jolie and Kristen Stewart. When asked about working with Stewart [in 'On The Road'] and dealing with the level of fame that she has, he tells Bullet Magazine in a new interview, "At 19, I think I would have wanted to be that famous, but now that I'm older and settled I wouldn't like it at all. Actually, I wouldn't mind the money."
He also talks about working with Jolie [in the 2014 release 'Maleficent'], he says, "They said, 'Angelina is ready,' and all I could see was the back of her head with these huge horns on it. I thought, F–king hell! What am I supposed to do?"
He also talks about how the press dissecting anything he says about Jolie or Stewart, but not being interested in anything else he mentions – "What I have to say isn't newsworthy, but what I have to say about Kristen or Angelina is newsworthy, which is weird. And sometimes you say something that doesn't translate, and you read it and think, I sound like such an arrogant twat, but I was f–king joking."
Riley can currently be seen in theaters in 'On The Road' and 'Byznatium', and is getting strong reviews for his performances in both films.

Holy patina! ANTIQUES ROADSHOW turns 10 years old in January 2006. The three-time Emmy-nominated series continues to be PBS's most-watched, thanks to an addictive mix of suspense, history, and dramatic revelations - in bite-sized segments. The magic ingredient that keeps viewers coming back for more? It's the alchemy of turning trash into treasure (and sometimes vice versa) before our very eyes, performed by some of the world's most adept antiques and collectibles experts. Each appraisal reveals a new surprise - and that never gets old. Premiering Monday, January 9, 2006 at 8pm ET on PBS, ROADSHOW's 10th season is packed with firsts - and foremost is the debut of Mark L. Walberg as series host. A seasoned veteran of television reality and quiz shows, Walberg brings a down-to-earth warmth and enthusiasm to each episode, whether he's welcoming the audience, chatting up guests at the appraisal events, or tapping experts for the latest collecting tips and trends. 2006 also heralds the first ANTIQUES ROADSHOW sweepstakes. ANTIQUES ROADSHOW "House Calls" turns the tables by inviting viewers to enter and win a ROADSHOW appraisal in the comfort of their own homes - complete with ROADSHOW experts and television cameras. The six lucky "House Calls" winners will be featured on ROADSHOW episodes throughout the 2007 broadcast season. ANTIQUES ROADSHOW continues the anniversary celebration online with a video scrapbook of great ROADSHOW milestones and moments from the series' first decade. Relive the excitement of ROADSHOW's all-time top ten appraisals. See how a ROADSHOW event comes to life with an insider's tour of the production process.

Antiques Roadshow.
I think this show is misunderstood.
We all love to think our old things and collectibles are worth money. This show is a fantasy come true; what looks like junk can be worth a cool $70,000! Expert appraisers evaluate curios, antiques, paintings, jewelry, and toys that real people bring in.
I may be a nerd--BUT I LOVE THIS SHOW!
Interesting perspective on the past
