Big Glass Duck & Dunbar

Bought this Duck at a yard sale about 20 years ago. I have been trying to find any info an it ever since I got it and cannot find a maker or what it is used for. The quality is excellent. From beak to tail it is 9 1/2"

From the shape I know these are Dunbar. I have veen trying to fin some with etching on them, no luck. I believe they are juice glasses about 5" tall.    Has anyone seen some like them?

 

(my daughter took these pics, why on a brown surface I'll never know)

Check Porterux and Vallersthal (spelling needs checking also) for the duck. They are just covered dishes for whatever. Did you try googling "blue milk glass duck"?
The cutting on the Dunbar is not complex and could have been done by many independent decorators thar used to operate.

I believe the duck is Westmoreland, it originally had applied glass eyes.  Thought this was their "Antique Blue Mist" color.

Thank you! I have collected Westmoreland glass for many years but they are all marked with the WG.

Yes WG = Westmoreland Glass. This duck is not marked though.

I found some images of the duck at various internet sites and it's listed as Fenton. I did a Google search in Images for "vintage blue glass duck nest".

 

So who knows which is correct?
