About Cambridge Crown Tuscan: “The words Crown Tuscan immediately bring to mind the beautiful opaque glass manufactured by the Cambridge Glass Company, Cambridge, Ohio. Used by Cambridge for a period of some 20 years, this extraordinary lovely color can be found in varying shades from light pink to dark tan, and in a depth range that varies from nearly translucent to opaque. First introduced to the public via an announcement in the September 1932 issue of the trade magazine China, Glass and Lamps, Crown Tuscan continued in production by Cambridge until the factory closed in 1954. Evidently it was not produced during their reopen period from 1956 to 1958.” - Source: https://www.cambridgeglass.org/articles/crowntuscanarticle.php About Charleton rose pattern: “One of the more beautiful and collectible decorations found on Crown Tuscan pieces was not done by the Cambridge Glass Company. Rather, these decorations which included various flowers and picturesque scenes, called "Charleton," were the product of a decorating company headquarted in New York City. "Charleton" was the registered trademark for this group of hand decorations done by the Abels, Wasserberg & Co., Inc. of New York. This company purchased glass pieces from several of the glass factories of that day - including Fenton, Fostoria, Jeannette, Westmoreland, Aladdin, and Cambridge - and applied their own hand decorations before selling them under their own label and in their own showrooms.” - Source: https://www.cambridgeglass.org/articles/crowntuscanarticle.php
