$115.00Large Victorian Glass Footed Table Bowl
Victorian glass centerpiece bowl in the Reverse Torpedo, also called Bulls-Eye and Diamond Point, circa 1891. The pattern was made in an extended table service of many forms but it is a challenging and scarce pattern to collect. It was produced by Dalzell, Gilmore & Leighton (pattern no. 49), early fore bearers of the pressed glass industry in the USA.
Near the end of the Victorian Era, pressed glass was a partially automated process overcoming the high cost of household glass and making it available to a broader market. Beautiful bowls like this graced many a Victorian home.
Glass over 70 years old is officially considered antique. Normal antique age is 100 years or older. Glass gets 30 years off because of it’s high rate of breakage. This old beauty is about 120 years old and in very fine condition. There are no chips or cracks, the glass is clean and brilliant with no signs of purpling. The base bears a solid ring of bottom-wear, appropriate for its age and weight.
Made with thick high clarity glass. The pattern is deep and 3-dimensional. The base and bowl were made separately and applied with molten glass. The ruffle rim was hand-tooled and heat-polished. Stands 9″ tall with an 11″ x 8″ oval bowl. Weighs just under 4 lbs.

$15.00It is important the measurement of the flower frog match your intended use. This antique glass flower frog is rimmed so it can sit upon the rim of your flower bowl or vase, allowing the flower stems to be inserted through the open holes reaching down into the water. It can be placed in the base of a large bowl if you like. It was designed to float above the base of the vessel or sit inside a vessel. Has three little feet on the base to raise above surface when placed inside a flower vase or bowl.
Most agree these helpful flower arranging tools were called ‘flower frogs’ because they sit in water, like a frog. Flower frogs became widely popular in the US during the early 1900’s for use in flower arranging. The form and function was replaced In the mid 1950’s by a water-absorbent foam, stopping the development of glass flower frogs.
Glass flower frogs of yesteryear are a better choice than modern foam as they are re-usable, sturdy, collectible and beautiful in their own way. Click here to learn how to use flower frogs.

$65.00Interesting set of Early American pressed glass with a concave circle pattern. It is a ‘Thousand Eye’ type, reflects the circles within the circles. We have not found a positive identification of the pattern.
The bowl was formed with a four-part mold and is in perfect condition. The jug was blown into a two-part mold with pontil evidence on the base. The jug has a horizontal sharp ringed neck. The rim has sharp vertical ridges and a flat 4-corner spout. There is a tiny imperceptible sliver chip on top-flat surface of the 4-corner rim. Both items were finished with fire-polishing.
Bowl measures 7″ round and 2″ tall. Cruet sized jug is 5¾” tall. Cork is not original (lol). The jug probably had a matching stopper when produced.
Circa estimated to the EAPG era, 1850 to 1910. Probably American made, but could be Irish.

$165.00Grand Antique Crystal Decanter in Block and Thumbprint Pattern
Large antique crystal decanter with original hollow, ground to fit stopper. Made of quality, thick leaded crystal. Weighs 4 Lbs. Stands 15″ tall.
Possibly made by Duncan Glass or Columbia Glass if produced in the U.S., but could be of European make. Both U.S. companies offered a Thumbprint Block pattern. This decanter’s pattern is unusual with alternating smooth blocks and blocks with thumbprints.
Estimated circa late 1800’s to early 1900’s. Black light test shows no evidence of manganese (a mineral used to replace lead during wartime) so we are assuming it was made between wars. It is pressed and polished lead crystal. Has an Art Deco styling but may be Late Victorian.
In excellent condition. Sparkling clean inside and out. Stopper is ground to fit. Rim is hand-polished. No seams. Beautiful, majestic addition to your bar.
A companion decanter with the same pattern by the same maker, but with a different form, is also available (shown in image 7). Click here to view the companion ship decanter.

$95.00Morgantown El Mexicano Vintage Glass Plates Set of Eight – Scarce
Vintage glass plates by Morgantown are in a scarce pattern which has evolved since the early 1930’s, originally called El Mexicano. The pattern variation name ‘Crinkle’ was produced in 1962 through the 1970’s. Very hard to find today.
The pattern was originally designed to look like the primitive plates found at an Inca archaeology dig. According to Morgantown Glass, the Spaniards taught the Incas the secrets of glass, but they had only crude materials and tools which produced “rough hewn glass objects”. Advertised as “An Ancient Technique Revived!” Called by numerous names, Del Rey, El Mexicano, Ockner, El Rancho and Crinkle glass.
The vintage glass plates are made of heavy double layered glass. The two layers are sandwiched together, the seam can be seen nears the rims. Color is moss green, a yellowish green. Very heavy glass.
Set includes (2) 8″ plates and (6) 6.5″ plates. Heavy glass, 8.5 lbs total plate weight. Would make the perfect dessert set for country, mid-century gothic, primitive, ocean, or organic decor. In near mint condition.
There are no chips, no cracks, no hazing. The rough edged rims have a minute amount of chiggers, that can’t be seen at all.

The first Anchor Hocking catalog featuring this pattern in 1941 called it Bullseye. The Bubble pattern came in Royal Ruby, colorless, Forest Green, Sapphire Blue, Opaque White, and Iridescent.
It’s great fun to collect the Bubble pattern. A large number of table glass and decorative forms were produced. The Royal Ruby color is most highly sought by collectors. Royal Ruby table glass, vases, etc. are favorites for adorning the holiday table.
Anchor Hocking made glass to endure heavy use. It’s hard to find this glass without some signs of usage because it is all at least 50 years old now. There are two sets available (choose quantity above) and all are in pristine condition.

SOLD
Cambridge glass stopper for #3400/92, 32 ounce ball decanter.
This Cambridge glass stopper fits their 1940’s ball decanter, but it can fit other decanters too. See image for exact measurements.
The pressed glass stopper has a square impression on the top, hard to see in the images. It is in excellent 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 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.

Large antique L.E. Smith Uranium glass flower frog was made in the 1920’s to 1930’s for assistance in flower arranging. The surface of the frog dome has little squiggly lines resembling hay. Made of Uranium glass which fluoresces bright glowing green under ultraviolet (black) light.The glass was created with Uranium to produce green colored glass at a time before Uranium was used for weapons. US production of Uranium glass ceased during World War II due to the US government’s confiscation of uranium supplies, and did not resume until 1958. After 1958, most Uranium glass objects were small figurines or reproductions of earlier antique forms. Read more about Uranium Glass.
This L.E. Smith Uranium glass flower frog was designed to sit upon the rim of your flower bowl or vase, allowing the flower stems to be inserted through the open holes reaching down into the water . It can be placed in the base of a bowl or vase if you’d like, as the rim will not prevent it, but it was specifically designed to float above the base of the vessel.
The L.E. Smith frog measures 4½” in diameter. The base is 4″ wide. Your flower vessel must have an 4″ wide opening for the frog to sit upon the rim. The frog has 16 holes. It is in perfect condition.

$45.00Large antique Black Amethyst glass flower frog was made in the 1920’s to 1930’s for assistance in flower arranging. It’s color is called Black Amethyst. It looks black, but is actually a very dark purple glass. In days gone by glass makers used dense purple or red glass to create black looking glass because they did not have a recipe for pure black glass.
This frog was designed to sit upon the rim of your flower bowl or vase, allowing the flower stems to be inserted through the open holes reaching down into the water . It can be placed in the base of a large bowl if you’d like, as the rim will not prevent it.
If you plan to use it as a rim balanced flower frog, your vessel opening rim must measure 3 ¼” to 4″ wide. The total width (diameter) of the round frog is 4½” wide. The frog rim is ¹⁄8″ inch wide. Stands 1¾” tall. The dome will rise above the level of the rim 1″. The flower stem holes are punched through (the punched through areas on the base reveal the true color, purple, when held to the light).
It weighs a tad over 1 lb. It is in great condition with one tiny sliver chip on the edge of the rim (view in image 1), no liquid stains.

$95.00Beautiful late Victorian era glass table centerpiece compote.
Victorian era glass long stemmed banana boat in excellent condition. A bunch of bananas fit perfectly, but works great with other fruits or food.
Similiar to Bryce Higbee patterns of the early 1900s. The flower-like sunrays, fans and zippers do not exactly match Higbee’s published patterns, and the glass feels and looks different. I believe it is older, around 1880 EAPG or possibly European.
The colorless, nearly white, crystal is peppered with hundreds of very tiny bubbles. The glass is heavy with a velvet smooth feel. It glows green under blacklight. Would turn purple if left exposed to ultra-violet light.
This beauty has been well-preserved with no hints of purple at all. The elaborate Sunray foot shows 4 mold lines. The mold lines on the stem are lost in the zippers. The pressed bowl was stretched and finished by hand with no mold lines visible. Looks like Sandwich type glass. The exterior pattern on the bowl is raised and the interior pattern is smooth with slight indents along the pattern.
Measures just under 9″ tall, 8.25″ long and 4.75″ wide. Weighs 2 lbs. Solid circle of bottom-wear on the base as expected on antique glass.

The glass was formed from an optic mold created the vertical panels inside the glass. Probably made by Jeannette Glass Co. in the 1930’s to 1940’s.
Perfect for those sunny and gay mornings drinking coffee or tea!
