    Pressed glass was never made in wooden molds. Carnival Glass was pressed into metal mold and while hot sprayed with metallic salts dissolved in water. This caused the iridescent surface to form.

    I have three large pole barn filled with every type of antique, including tons of carnilal glass. My father collected his entire life.

    Do you purchase from estate sales if my son doesn't want the ones I have. Not that I'm planning to make them available anytime real soon.

    I do not have carnival glass but a German made piece with a sticker on it. It says bleikristall echt pfauenau. The end of the last name I gave to you is where the paper ends or ripped. I do know it is crystal. My mother gave this to me before her death in 2003. It's colors are similar to carnival glass. Is it worth anything?

    You did not talk about value. How much should I pay for or sell it for !
