Detective Work

from Rande Bly

David Chadwick-Brown’s green cut to clear Thistle pattern piece is Nile Green over Crystal. All of the green overlay pieces are Nile Green

Ed. Going to the shape section on www.cardersteubenclub.org you’ll find not only pictures related to various shapes (some 12,000 pictures already), but the 7,000+ line drawings. As you can see from the line drawing above often a color or pattern associated with that line drawing may be listed. That doesn’t mean that other colors or patterns may have been added later; but in this instance we learn that the color of green in this particular goblet is “Nile Green”.
