$65.00Vintage Muranese Art Glass Hand Blown Stoppered Jug and Handled Bowl by Rainbow
Mid 1950’s art glass hand blown vessels for the vanity or table. Beautiful set by Rainbow Art Glass made in the USA.
Both were blown by hand with mottled white decor. The mottled decor combined with the style of the form was called ‘Muranese’ (Murano style), according to distributor ‘Belknap’ in their 1955 catalog, see image.
The jug/cruet has its original, fitted double-ball stopper. The dual handled urn is a scarce item, rarely seen today. The urn is slightly darker in color than the jug due to old-fashioned methods of mixing glass colors (by hand). Different batches of the same color often had slightly different tones.
Pontil scars from the glassblower’s punty on the base. Image 5 includes a large cobalt blue goblet to help show size and color.
Both in excellent condition. The jug measures 6″ tall. The urn is 3.25″tall and 4.25″ wide from handle to handle. The stoppered jug part no. was 781, and it came in six different fab shapes. Great fun to collect all shapes. The two-handled pot hasn’t been spotted in reference material.

$65.00Rare unused retro modern 1960’s – 1970’s relic with original labels.
This special retro modern domed server was handmade in Italy by Colony and distributed in the US by PD Imports (sometimes called PeeDee).
The retro modern domed server has two labels; 1 on the glass and 1 on the wood base. This beauty was found nearly covered in paint (on the exterior). When the paint was removed, so was the writing on the label still stuck to the glass. But the label on the inside wood is whole and reads “Handmade, Colony, Italy, PD imports”. Pee Dee is known for importing Italian glass to the U.S. for everyday use from famous designers.
Shows no signs of use. In perfect condition. It’s a big dome, large enough for a tall wedge of cheese, fruit and crackers. The very pleasing dark chestnut amber glass fits well with most decors.

$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.

Quality elegant crystal blown into mold with hand finished spouts and polished pontil mark on base. The stopper has a large flower hand-etched on the top. Stopper and bottle neck were ground to fit tight.
Cambridge called this form a ‘French Salad Dressing Bottle’, but it can be used for any condiment or special potion. Also great for the vanity table or bar.
Large condiment bottle measures 8″ tall and holds 8 ounces. Weighs 1.6 lbs. Small chips located at insert end of stopper (see images). Otherwise in excellent condition.

$115.00EAPG Glass Covered Comport in Spirea Band Squared Dot Pattern by Bryce
Big early American pressed glass covered comport by Bryce Higbee, circa 1885. In beautiful shape, no damage. The only sign of wear is the solid ring of bottom-wear on the base where it has rubbed against the surface for about 130 years.
This type of glass would ‘purple’ if left in direct UV light. It takes on a green glow under black-light. ‘Purpling’ is considered damage by most collectors. This beauty has no hint of purple. The glass is colorless and sparkling clean. Unusual to find an item like this with the matching lid in great condition.
Large EAPG covered comport measures 9½” tall and 8″ at widest. Widest girth is 24″. Weighs almost 3 lbs. Will hold lots of goodies, and is large enough to hold a side-dish, fruit, etc.

SOLD
Antique Satin Glass Powder Box with Lovebirds
Antique satin glass puff box featuring a pair of lovebirds sitting on a branch. Made in the 1920’s by a company within the U.S. Glass Consortium, perhaps Tiffin Glass. Parrot and Lovebird themes were popular in the Art Deco era.
The glass is in perfect condition, no chips or chiggers. The semi-translucent satin finish is in bright and whole condition. It appears perfect. But, when this box was made approximately 90 years ago, it was hand-painted with gold enamel trim. Although hard to see, traces of the enamel are present beneath the outer rim. The gold has worn off so completely it’s difficult to detect it once was there. Still looks beautiful.
Measures 5″ wide, 3″ tall and weighs just under 1 lb.

$55.00Diamond Block Covered Butter Dish – Antique Flint Glass
Antique flint glass covered dish made during the Early American pressed glass period (EAPG 1825 – 1910). Homemakers, servants and/or slaves made their own butter from milk. It was a time consuming process and butter was considered a luxury food. Beautiful dishes were made to present the butter at the dining table. This rare table service butter dish is an excellent example.
Probably made by George Duncan & Sons / U.S. Glass circa 1880, pattern called Diamond Block, also known as Diamond Waffle, also known as Patricia. Other possible makers are Westmoreland Glass, pattern Gillinder, circa 1889; and Heisey made a limited pattern like this called ‘mitered diamond’. The shape of the knob points directly to Duncan and we are 90% sure it is by Duncan.
Made of ‘White Glass’, a term used to describe antique flint glass. Flint glass is a very hard glass, and reflects a white sparkle. If broken, it separates into chunks. Usually made with quartz in the recipe.
Table service butter dishes are sized-down to accommodate about 1/4 lb. Doubles as a cheese, cavair, etc. server. This scarce beauty measures 5″ round and 3″ tall, weighs 1 lb. It is in near perfect condition. Amazing. The only sign of age is the thick, complete band of bottom-wear (from surface contact) on the seat ring and a small thin sliver off the inner bowl ring which holds the dome in place. Nearly invisible but can be felt. Dome was made with a 4-part mold, base was pressed.
