A collection of carnival glass and ceramics featuring an assortment of iridescent glassware and transferware. The group includes a large pressed glass punch bowl decorated with embossed grapevines and fruit clusters, accompanied by eight matching cups, all displaying a marigold iridescent finish. Also present is a tall swung vase with a ruffled rim and ribbed body in marigold glass, a second tall iridescent vase in a dark smoke tone with a multi-pointed ruffled rim, three varying marigold glass bowls, and a small matching pitcher. A single tall, slender vase in a matte opaque orange-red finish is included. The ceramic pieces comprise a two-handled vase featuring a blue transferware design of a neoclassical chariot scene; the base is printed in blue with a chariot graphic and the words CAULDON ENGLAND arranged in a curve. A bird figurine in flight with a metallic iridescent glaze is marked to the underside with the incised characters Berma HOLLAND and the number 274. The collection is completed by a small pale blue jasperware style dish with a white sprigged border and a central white monogram RR.
