$200.00Majestic Victorian blown glass vases stand 16.75″ tall.
Offered as a set of two. Victorian blown glass mantel vases, circa 1880’s. Hand blown and hand decorated in a Charleton Rose type decor (very popular in the day).
Both in almost like-new condition. No chips or cracks on the glass. No liquid stains. The enamel is still bright and slightly raised from the surface. There are only a couple, very tiny, almost invisible, enamel misses. The only real wear to these beauties is on the surface of the flat polished beveled rim which had a layer of gold that has nearly worn off.
Hand-blown glass is never identical. These are very close to identical with the only visible difference showing in the bases. One base is thicker than the other. The hand-painted enamel was applied using a stencil as a guide. There are differences in the flowers, because it is hand done, but it is unnoticeable.
The shape was blown and then cut at the rim. A punty mark (where the glass blower held the glass with his tool) is slightly inverted on the base. The bases have a solid band of bottom-wear caused by sitting on a surface for over 100 years, this is expected and not considered damage.
Probably made in Europe. May have been made in America by early Cambridge glass whose designs mirrored those popular in Europe and extensively used the Charleton Rose style decor.

Hand-formed vintage glass pitcher in smoke green with ice lip by Bryce, USA. This is a large and beautiful beverage pitcher made with quality vintage glass.
In the late 1950’s to early 1960’s, smoked colors were very popular. What is known as Swedish Modern Glass was the rage. The Scandinavian makers introduced fabulous smoked colors, which was imitated by other countries. The Scandinavians also produced many styles imitating ice, wood and other organic surfaces, and other makers of the era followed suit.
In America, makers such as Duncan Miller, Tiffin, Bryce (to name a few) made Crinkle, Ockner, El Mexicana and El Rancho, etc. The pattern on this pitcher matches El Rancho by Bryce Bros. Glass Co., pre-1967.
The smoked moss color is beautiful. At first it appears to be an off-gray. At closer inspection the dark moss smoke green color is evident. Attractive pattern and color makes this large vintage glass pitcher a stunning vase too.

$25.00Retro Fire King Kitchen Glass Summerfield Vintage Loaf Pan and Sauce Bowls

Retro Fire King glass is fun to collect by pattern, and to use. The Summerfield pattern, introduced in the 1973 Fire-King catalog is nick-named ‘Flower Field’ by collectors.

This vintage glass swag lamp is large and in perfect condition. The peach flowers were hand-painted in warm browns, oranges and yellows with black and cream stamen. The leaves are in earthy olive greens. The very light tan shading gives depth. The large glass globe is in light cream with a hint of orange.

Has a handy-dandy new-fangled big round on/off switch module at the end of the chain that can be attached to the wall. The switch module has wear to the plating, but it works.
There is a mark on the glass at the top of the globe near the antiqued gold-tone metal cap. It looks like some very small strips of the décor were removed when somebody removed a sticker. All else is perfect.
