All About Carnival Glass
What exactly is Carnival Glass?
Carnival Glass is iridised glass with a moulded pattern. That is the straightforward answer to the question, although in reality, the answer is rather more complicated!
It is one of several questions about Carnival Glass that get asked fairly often. It got us thinking that there wasn't an easy place to look to find the answers, which is why we are posing the Frequently Asked Questions here, and providing answers. For anyone who wants to dig more deeply and explore further into the fascinating world of Carnival Glass, there are links to far more information elsewhere on our website.
It's also clear to us that there are many Myths and Misunderstandings about Carnival Glass, and once they get "out there", they become part of glass folklore. Our Myth Buster! will give you the facts and put the record straight. We hope you enjoy it!
