r/glasscollecting

Just found this new friend for $5 at an estate sale🐢

spent 55 bucks for all of this. I’ve never found “Viking glass” before. I think these are two Viking glass vases. idk

I’ve been lurking on Marketplace for ages trying to find a shelving unit for the collection but finally just had to buy one online. And I may have to buy two more because this is like only a third of the whole collection, but it’s the best pieces (of colored glass anyways, the crystal is another story. And then there’s the stemware….).
It lights up the whole room with colors when the light hits it right 🤗

I just bought this gorgeous set of Vereco glass today for a steal! 500 ZAR (+- 30 USD).

Its almost complete. Has 12x dinner plates, 11x side plates, 12x soup bowls ,12x mugs and their saucers, 10x teacups and their saucers, 12x small berry bowls, 12x slightly larger desert bowls, 2x long serving plates, 2x round serving plates, 2x salad bowls.

I'd love to know whether they are safe for daily use as I'd love to use these beauties. And any other information if anyone has any! So happy to have these in my home.

I have an orange Blenko vase just like it and always wish that i had a green one (it’s my color:) and couldn’t believe i saw it on the bottom shelf at GW in my second pass through the aisle!

My Grandma recently died and we found boxes with the names of the younger Generation of the family with these glass figurines wrapped in bubble wrap. Of course, everyone gets theirs, but we are already talking about swapping among us, some aren't interested in the figurines and would like to pass them on to those who are, but we have no idea what they even are, or if they are worth a lot of money or just sentimental from a place she adored. What did our grandma collect here for her grandkids?

There are penguins, ducks, elephants, fish, birds. No stickers anywhere. All in this distinct purple and black style.

I found them on marketplace last night, just listed and snatched them up! $40 for both.

It all cost 90 euros at the flea market.

Sourced through Facebook marketplace. Lots of good pieces in CT.

I don't know if I should buy it. I Google lensed it and it says it's a "David Wright" which goes for a LOT of money. But IS IT a David Wright? How could I tell? This person probably doesn't know and is selling it for 45 dollars.

I have found several of these antique clear glass bottles. They are 4 .5" tall. The bottoms all have the same markings "W&T" and under that "126". I got them in rural Pennsylvania.

My searching only turned up a listing for "Sage Brush Hair Tonic" that appears to use these same bottles. However, I am assuming these bottles were used by many companies for apothecary bottles.

Any additional information would be appreciated, like if they are worth anything or if I should just enjoy them as bud vases.

Thanks

Any info on this find? I was hoping to resell it if it’s worth anything. (Also - is this the kind that glows? I don’t have a black light to check)
