There were three types of decoration used on this opal glass - Wave Crest, Kelva and Nakara each decorated with their distinct style decoration. Both Kelva and Nakara decorated items were made in less quantity than basic Wave Crest items and are for that reason are generally more expensive and harder to find. The C. F. Monroe Company was in business from 1896-1916. Much of the opal glass known as Wave Crest was produced by the Mt. Washington Glass Co. and was purchased by the C. F. Monroe Co. as glass blanks to be decorated by their artists. We at Antiques & Moore have been in the Antiques business for over 30 years and try to describe our items as accurately as possible.
