$225.00Heisey Prison Stripe attern #357 antique crystal oil cruet with original stopper.
Very hard to find pattern and form made by Heisey in the U.S.A. for only 5 years. Circa 1904 to 1909. The pattern is also known as Horizontal Stripes.
Only 32 items (forms) were made in this pattern. This is an oil or vinegar cruet. Especially rare form, with original stopper. Book value in 2001 for this lovely scarcity is $275.00.
Blown into mold with thick, heavy quality glass. The pattern is very deep. Appears cut. The base shows the pontil scar. Handle was hand-pulled and applied.
It is in remarkably fine condition for its age and rarity. A smooth sliver chip can be felt beneath the spout lip. It cannot be seen without inspecting very closely. The original stopper has some small chiggers on the tip. Very light liquid residue on inside base only. Barely visible. No chips or chiggers to the body.
Measures 7.5″ tall. Very rare and special gift for your favorite antique glass cruet collector!

Oleg Cassini became particularly well known as a designer for Jacqueline Kennedy while her husband was President in 1961 to 1963. Cassini was chosen by Jacqueline Kennedy as her exclusive fashion designer and was heralded as the “Secretary of Style to the White House”. The “Jackie Look” was all the rage in the 1960s.

SOLD
Double ball amber glass stopper in by Rainbow Art Glass.
Hand-formed amber glass stopper measures 3″ long. Solid glass. Made in the U.S.A. during the Mid-Century Modern decor period (1940’s to 1970’s) by Rainbow Art Glass. This stopper was made for Rainbow’s small bottles and jugs but will work with any bottle or jug that fits.
Please see image provided of the amber glass stopper for exact measurements. It is in perfect condition.
To determine if your stopper will fit your bottle:
Replacing missing stoppers is tricky. A good fit is essential. The measurements must match perfectly to the bottle neck opening in order to seal the air out and sit upright (without wiggling). Replaced stoppers are referred to as “married”, meaning the stopper is not original to the bottle.
- Measure the inner diameter of bottle neck opening. Use a soft tape measure to determine the width of the top opening. Measure the open space only, between the bottle neck opening. Do not include the glass rim of the bottle neck.
- The stopper’s ‘insert top’ (see image with measurements) should match the inner diameter (width) of the bottle neck opening exactly or just very slightly smaller. You can use your soft measuring tape to encircle the inner top opening to obtain the circumference.
- Most decanter bottle necks taper slightly down toward the vessel, resulting in a smaller neck measurement than the bottle neck opening. You should know the length of the insert. The insert is the portion of the stopper that enters the bottle neck opening.
- Take the measurement of the stopper’s insert length, from base to top of insert, and use your soft tape measure to determine where the stopper base will rest in your bottle neck. The stopper’s ‘insert base’ should measure exactly or just very slightly smaller than the measurement of the area of the bottle neck where it will rest when inserted.
Most stoppers made for the large decanters from the past have a ground area encircling the stopper base. These stoppers have been ‘ground to fit’ by the maker for the exact bottle they were made for. If you know how to grind glass, or know someone who does, you can have your stopper altered to fit your bottle. This can be done only with stopper inserts that are slightly larger than the bottle neck.
Trying to get a perfect ‘marriage’ between a vintage glass decanter and replacement stopper is not easy. Often, even when the measurements match up, the stopper will tend to lean or wiggle. If your decanter is for decor purposes only, and you do not plan on using it as a decanter, you can put a small blob of putty or wax on the inner neck of the bottle to stabilize the stopper.

$90.00Large hand-blown vintage glass cruet in canary yellow and blue.
Hand-blown vintage glass table cruet by Tiffin Art Glass or Steuben Glass, both U.S. companies. Tiffin is no longer in business (see more info link below). Steuben, established in 1906, continues to provide quality colorless glass to this day, although I suspect it is produced offshore.
This beautiful oversize cruet was made in the 1930’s to 1940’s. Both Tiffin and Steuben offered the blue and yellow (also called Topaz) color combination during this time period.
Suspect it is by Steuben. Research uncovered the pinched rounded square vessel as Steuben, but the stopper was in canary with applied blue decor that’s used with Steuben’s Venetian line. The stopper on this bottle is in topaz only with an interior bubble. Although Tiffin made many tableware forms in canary and blue, we did not find a Tiffin form that matched this.
The stopper is original and fits perfect. The pontil scar was polished to half moon. For large thumbprint dents accomplishe dby hand tool. Hand-blown vintage glass with applied handle.
Larger than a standard cruet, measuring 8″ tall with a 3.5″ squarish base. No damage, no water staining. Light bottom wear on the seat from over 80 years of surface contact. Perfect for table or bar.

$85.00Vintage Nason & Moretti hand-blown crystal decanter plus hollow stem goblet.
Nason & Moretti crystal pinch decanter with the label used for tableware in the 1970’s to 1980’s. Sitting next to the decanter in the images is a beautiful hollow stem vintage crystal goblet which is included. The stem is usually attributed to Baccarat crystal, but many glass makers offered this form during the 1940’s to 1960’s.
Nason & Moretti is an Italian glass maker. The label reads ‘Nason & Moretti Murano Made in Italy‘. The decanter was pinched with hand-tool near the base, giving it both style and a good grip. Made of hand-blown quality thick walled crystal. Pontil mark is a polished circle. Stopper is hollow and ground to fit with the bottle neck.
Both items are in like-new condition. The decanter stands 8.5″ tall. The goblet is 5.5″ tall.
