RAYED Interior of
LEAF & BEADS NUTBOWL
LEAF & BEADS Nutbowl: This prominent exterior pattern is associated with use on rosebowls, but occasionally these nutbowl shapes appear. Since, in this case, the RAYED interior has been applied, it becomes quite attractively flared into a 3 ½ high bowl, having a 6 ½ spread at the opening. The points on these nutbowls can extend straight up or be slightly flared outward. This shape is much more difficult to find than any of the rosebowl colors. Marigold, amethyst, green, cobalt blue, white, and aqua opalescent are the reported colors. While aqua opal is fairly available in the rosebowl shape, it is quite rare to find a nutbowl in that color.
LEAF & BEADS - Marigold has a beaded edge not often found.

BLOSSOMS & PALMS Exterior pattern: These marigold 8 ½ - 8 3/4 bowls are seen in 1909 Butler Brothers Wholesale Catalog ads, having no interior design, illustrating that Northwood made the pattern in marigold carnival glass with three and one edge. The picture of the ruffled version was generously supplied by Shirley Reichel. We thank her for that! Additional colors known: amethyst and green.
The pattern shows through quite nicely when used to accompany GRAPE LEAVES bowls in ice blue, but on the darker amethyst and green bowls, the outer pattern is not so noticeable.

7 inch Bowl

LIGHTNING FLOWER: This 7 marigold ruffled bowl has come to light in recent months. The only shape on record in this very scarce exterior pattern is the single handled nappy, which is also known only in marigold. Perhaps time will divulge other colors?

White WISHBONE Bowl in
9 3/4 inch size with Pie Crust Edge

WISHBONE Pie Crust edge bowl: Depending upon the tightness of the crimp and the spread of the bowl, these collar base 9-10 bowls are found in marigold, amethyst, green, cobalt blue, clambroth, white, smoke. The same size bowls with a ruffled edge are known in marigold, amethyst, green, sapphire blue. The Northwood trademark is found on most examples; however, some are unsigned. Basketweave pattern is found on the large, collar based bowls, but the three-footed ruffled 8-9 bowls carry the Ruffles and Rings pattern, a mold purchased from Jefferson Glass Co. in 1908. These footed bowls can be found in marigold, amethyst, green, cobalt blue, white, ice blue, ice green, aqua opalescent, lavender, horehound, lime green, smoke. Footed plates are available in marigold, amethyst and green. Triangular plates - 8-9 are known in marigold and amethyst.

The eternal city is dramatically marked by reading Rev.22:1-5
And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal,
proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life,
which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month.
The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
And there shall be no more curse,
but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it,
and His servants shall serve Him.
They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.
There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun,
for the Lord God gives them light.
And they shall reign forever and ever.
