    Production conditions in the early 1900s were dirty and dangerous; there was no "Quality Control" as we know it now. Issues resultant from these conditions include:
    -Air bubbles in the glass that were not squeezed out during pressing.
    -Heat checks which are internal rifts filled with air (which is why you can see them), usually from a burst air bubble.
    -Inclusions in or on the surface of the glass, such as ash and cinders. Often found in the flames of vases and rims of bowls were it settled during pressing.
    -Strands of undissolved colorant (usually in green glass).
    -Straw marks which are lines in the glass caused by premature solidification where the molten glass was snipped from the gathering rod with cool metal shears when the mould was full; lines also formed on the surface during the cooling process.
    -Tool marks from implements used to form the edge or influence the shape.
    -Mold issues related to filling and release such as incomplete or malformed edges, rough seams, extra glass at seams; webbed, incomplete or pulled edge points.
    -Cooling issues such as uneven legs, slanted stems or a bowed base (causing rocking), surface lines and heat checks.
