Prior to 1910 most pieces were cut in geometric patterns. These are frequently called “rich cut glass”. They consist of combinations of hobstars, pinwheels, diamonds, fans and other geometric patterns. After 1910, many companies began cutting and engraving non-geometric designs on their glass. Flowers were the most common pattern, but fruit, birds and other natural scenes also appeared. Many of the “flower period” pieces combined natural objects with geometric patterns. For instance, it was not uncommon to see a border of hobstars around a floral center on a bowl or a plate. Most flower period pieces are acid polished; many are cut on figured blanks.
