The 3011 cupped and flared Comports were produced on both the 4½” (middle size nude) and the 6″ (largest size nude) Nude Stems.

Tall – The nude is 6″ (largest size). The top width is 6½” (catalog states 7″). The overall height is 7¾” – 8″.
Flared Comport

Both the short cupped and flared Comports are known in the colors of carmen, royal blue, crystal, forest green, amethyst, amber, gold krystol, moonlight blue, pink, pistachio, mandarin gold, emerald green and smoke. One has been seen in all peachblo, top, nude and foot.

Cupped Comport
Flared Comport
The tall cupped and flared comports are known in the colors of carmen, royal blue, crystal, forest green, amethyst, amber, gold krystol, heatherbloom, crown tuscan and crown tuscan with an ebony foot.
The tall Comports, both cupped and flared were made with the Diane, Apple Blossom and Gloria etchings on crystal and some colors. They have been seen in crown tuscan with gold encrusted and gold silk screen decorations. They have also been found with the blue and white enamel Yale Bulldog decoration. Comports in crystal were also available with Rock Crystal cuttings.
The tall Comports were made in the 1930’s – 40’s and are pictured in the NCC 1930-34 Catalog Reprint, page 34-2. The short Comports were made in the 1940’s – 50’s and are pictured in Welker’s Catalog Reprint, page 45.
Although the Cambridge Glass Company did not include the following Seashell Comports in their #3011 Figure Stem Line, we have chosen to include them in this article.
Seashell Comport (SS10) – The nude is 4″ (smallest size). The top width is 5″ by 5¼”. The overall height is 5½”.
Seashell Comport (SS11) – The nude is 6″ (largest size). The top width is 7″ by 7¼”. The overall height is 7¾”.
The small Seashell Comports are known in the colors of crystal and crown tuscan.
The tall Seashell Comports are known in the colors of crystal, crown tuscan, all green, all mandarin gold and windsor blue.
Both the short and tall Seashell Comports were available in crown tuscan with Charleton decorations. Some of the tall Comports have been found signed, with the 
to one side of the Seashell plate.
SS/10 Comport
SS/11 Comport
There are various styles of connections atop the nude on the Seashell Comports. The plates have been seen turned various ways, with the flat part to the side or to the back.
These Seashell Comports were made in the 1940’s and are pictured in Welker’s Catalog Reprint 1, page 46.
The most difficult to find of all three types of Comports are those with decorations and the ones which are all one color – such as the tall Seashell in all mandarin gold or emerald green.
None of these have been reproduced.
