Here is something you don't see every day...even if you're the biggest Cambridge glass collector with what you think every pattern ever made! It's a Custom made Adams pattern tall footed sherbert with a Crest in place of one of the urns! The crest has a Rampant Rabbit, a Tree and a large Y which in my research turns out to be a Pallium Cross also known as a Papal Cross and Pall Cross and has something to do with Popes and Archbishops...something like that. Also it is not exclusively used on Catholic coat of arms but I have seen this used on Hotel logos such as the Sherman Hotel which uses the Y in a shield on their restaurantware pattern but the Rampant Rabbit and Tree are missing on their logo. I'm sure there are other establishments and organizations that would have used this Y as part of their logo and with some research, someone might be surprised! The Crest or Coat of Arms is in one of the sections while the rest of the piece remains entirely the Adams pattern and all of this is done on a tall sherbert stem line 7516. According to the Cambridge Glass Collector's Society..both the Adams pattern and the stemline used are circa very early 1920's. I did email them about this piece and received an email back, they did verify that this IS indeed a variation of Adams on a tall sherbert from the stemline 7516 but have never seen this and cannot find anything on it in their records for this special crest Adams Variant. They stated that this was a custom piece made privately ...
