I had a question about the line in the middle  (center) is it scratched and that it was a Straw Mark. Here is a better way to explain it:
Carnival Glass collecting has its “urban myths” just like everything else – take the story behind the (incorrectly used) term “straw mark” for example.
Sometimes, when you look look at a piece of glass, you can see a short, straight mark, about an inch long, on the surface of their glass. These marks are much more visible and obvious on Carnival Glass, as the iridescent surface emphasises their appearance, especially if they occur in a plain section of the design.
At first sight the mark may cause alarm, and they can be a little unsightly. Could it be a crack? No - but what caused it?
The correct name for the mark is a
shear mark
, which indicates clearly what made it
.
Glassmakers used shears to cut off the gather of molten glass as it was being dropped into the mould ready to be pressed - see below left. Because the blades of the shears were relatively cool, the act of cutting the very hot glass resulted in a fractional cooling and resultant hardening of the surface of the glass where it was cut. This is the
shear mark
- seen in close-up, below centre - which is most obvious where the design has large plain, pattern-free areas.
With skill on behalf of the presser, the shear mark could be hidden - either within the intricacies of the pattern, or by expert "flipping" of the gob of molten glass so the shear mark was not on the surface. The mark could also be removed by re-heating the pressed item and "fire-polishing" the mark out.
However, judging by the number of shear marks that are visible on Carnival Glass pieces, this was not always done, whether it was down to lack of skill, time or the lack of quality control
