| Drapery rosebowls and candy dishes are found in a wide range of colors, suggesting that they were made for a number of years. The rosebowl and candy dish (usually tricorner), were made from different molds--note the collar base on the rosebowl and the ribs that extend beyond the base forming small toes on the candy dish. The mold used for the candy dish was also used to make the Drapery vase (see below). A few of the rosebowls have a smooth, rather than knobby, edge and these bring a premium price. Unlike most Northwood patterns, aqua opal is the most common color in rosebowls, while marigold is quite scarce. In candy dishes, ice blue is the most common color and marigold again scarce. The small toes on the candy dishes (and vases), are very succeptible to damage. Fenton made a similar pattern in contemporary glass that has three scroll feet. The tumbler, in white, is one of the few known and the only one to sell at auction in recent years. It brought $2,800 in 2000. | |

| As noted above, the Drapery vase (left photo) was made from the same mold as the candy dish and has three small toes extending out from the ribs at the base. In the right photo are a Drapery variant vase (without the small toes) and a Drapery footed variant (sometimes called the variant variant). Unlike the regular vase with three vertical ribs and toes, the footed variant has four ribs and toes. Both the variant and footed variant are seen much less often than the regular vase. |
