I've just gone through over 1000 patterns on a website and have done google searches too countless to mention. The closest match I've found is hobstar but that's not it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

THANKS!

Are you sure it's carnival? It seems to be missing the iridescence usually associated with carnival
unless it's just the photo.

I too was thinking that it could be depression glass instead of carnival glass. I will search my depression glass books.

I see several pattrns that are very close in the collectors encyclopedia of depression glass, but none exactly like that. Can you take more pics ? Its a beautiful piece whatever the case is. The mystery continues ? Daisy number 620 by indiana glass company is close but not quite. Could be a modern reprduction of No.618, pineapple & floral indiana glass company, 1932-1937. Cant quite seem to get an exact match.

It is iridized -- the flash has somehow hidden it. I've looked further but have gotten nowhere. When I get home after the holidays I hope to be able to search more thoroughly.

Possible good news was the the makers of carnival glass used a process of iridescence to simulate Tiffany glass.
Wouldn't that be nice. Tiffany should have a mark on the bottom.
