ROCK CRYSTAL (OMN) nm
• AKA: Floral Panel
• MAKER: New Martinsville Glass Manuf. Co./New Martinsville-WV (Co.Operated: 1900-1944), Introduced: 1903 Introduced
• NOTE: ID provided by James Measell
NOTE: James Measell re vase: See p. 101 of the NM book. This looks like the spooner mould, used to make a pressed piece that becomes a swung vase. It has the "salmon" look associated with much Muranese, but it does not have the vivid iridescence. So, I suspect it's an early Muranese batch lacking the metallic ingredient that produces the iridescence.
