Identification of carnival glass is very difficult task. Most of the manufacturers did not include a maker s mark in their product, while the others did so only for part of the time they produced the glass.

As it is with any type of antique, novices should stick with items they enjoy when looking to buy. Carnival Glass is a fun and whimsical style to add to any collection, but not everyone will appreciate its typically bold appearance.
