WINGED SCROLL #1280
This is a nice old pressed pattern dating 1899-1901. It is not marked with the Diamond H trademark. It is most often found in Ivorina Verde sometimes called Ivory, Emerald Green. It is scarce in Crystal, Canary and Opal (milk glass). The most common decoration found on Winged Scroll pieces is gold. This pattern contains many pieces not found in other Heisey patterns. The puff box and trinket box was later made by Jefferson Glass and is often confused for the Heisey items. Heisey marketed several sets in this pattern including smoking sets and condiment sets and they are coveted by collectors. The table set that include the covered butter, cream, covered sugar and spoon and the berry sets seem to be the most common. The items pictured are in Ivorina Verde often called custard glass and the pitcher is Emerald Green. Most of the info for this article came from the book “Heisey Glass 1896-1957” by Tom and Neila Bredehoft.
