* The 3-Swan vase was originally a Duncan & Miller mould - it was their "Swan Vase (No. 3)", as shown in this 1934 ad. Like many glass companies, Imperial acquired mould from other factories. Duncan & Miller did not make this piece in Carnival Glass. A 1934 Duncan & Miller ad showing the Swan Vase
in frosted crystal and other colours. They did not make it in Carnival Glass. |
