Harry Northwood
formed The Northwood Glass Company in Martin's Ferry, Ohio, in 1888. In 1892 the firm relocated to Ellwood City, PA, and then moved again to Indiana, Pennsylvania, in 1896. In 1901, unhappy with being a member of the National Glass Combine, Northwood severed his ties with National, bought the old Hobbs, Brockunier plant in Wheeling, West Virginia, and was back to being happy as an independent producer. His old plant in Indiana, PA, became the Dugan Glass Company. Northwood began producing iridized glassware circa 1908. He was the only glass maker to use the Pie Crust Edge (PCE) on his Carnival Glass bowls, and was one of the few to use an embossed trademark. Unfortunately, the application of his trademark
was an inconsistent process, so about half of Northwood's glass left the factory unmarked. Don't depend solely on the presence of a trademark for authenticity; learn the patterns and learn which ones were reproduced, so that you don't pass over many wonderful pieces that aren't trademarked or, waste your money on a reproduction or fake.
Excellent Undamaged Antique Condition
means that while a
listed
item has no post-production damage such as a chip or crack,
it may show minor wear from usage and/or nesting (stacking).
And, since manufacturing conditions in the early 1900s were dirty and dangerous, and there was no "Quality Control" as we know it now, there may be some number of production issues such as:
Air bubbles
in the glass.
Heat checks
which are internal rifts filled with air, usually caused by a burst air bubble.
Inclusions
in or on the surface of the glass, such as ash and cinders. Often found in the flames of vases and rims of bowls were it settled during pressing.
Strands
of undissolved colorant (usually in green glass).
"Straw" marks
which are lines
in the glass caused by premature solidification where the molten glass was
snipped from the gathering rod with cool metal shears.
Tool or "incidental" marks
from implements used to shape the glass or, from "incidental" contact by the soft glass with surroundings.
Mold issues
such as incomplete or malformed edges,
rough seams, extra glass at seams; webbed, incomplete or pulled edge points.
Cooling issues
such as
uneven legs, slanted stems or a bowed base (causing rocking), surface furrows, and heat checks.
Production issues may be undesirable in the extreme, but they do not qualify as "damage" and will be found to some degree on nearly all antique glassware.
