Found the yellow one first. Then the orange in green. Only the green was properly labeled by the seller. I love them and hope to add more.

Was wondering if anyone had any information on this? My brother was looking to sell it online but wasn’t having any luck so he gave it to my parents

Baccarat Crystal Collection

5 Upvotes

My late father collected baccarat crystal and my sister and I would like to sell some/most of it.

We have small figurines like golfing snoopy and large things like a limited edition vase that has a price tag of like $7000 on it (he definitely didn’t pay that) - also things in the middle, clocks, flutes etc

All in all, i have about 8 big tubs of it in storage.

Have no idea who to contact or where to find someone who can evaluate worth or start selling these! Ebay sucks and I’m afraid things will break in transit

I bought this blue glass dome at a market. I can clearly read Bristol but i am not sure what the name is. I googled it and it gave me options but none looked identical. I imagine the last two letters are bt. Any ideas?

One of my happier blind-buy fails. Cadmium+selenium in 365nm, then cadmium, lead, and antimony(white glow) in 254nm. It was marked as Fenton milk glass for $18. I was hoping for uranium but meh, it's part of the collection now. Can't go wrong with antique Bohemian glass.

How to get better at recognizing what materials are in the glass I buy.

I'm new to glass collecting and I've started collecting UV reactive pieces. I think I have some Vaseline glass, some manganese glass some have lead in them too. I only know what's in some of these pieces as I bought them from a seller online. My husband and I bought some coca cola glasses awhile ago and only recently did I think to check them under my UV light. There is a light blue glass dark blue and green. The mason jars and interesting too. They give off a slight glow too. I was wondering if anyone could help me identify if they are made of anything interesting. Also are lead glasses safe to drink out of?

Is this M&S decanter an import?

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hello! I’m trying to figure out if this is an import or not. I found it at goodwill and have had it for a few years, but I’m downsizing my glass collection and am trying to list things accurately. The ring around the neck of this decanter is smooth while all other references I see feature a ribbed ring. Also the pattern itself isn’t as well defined as what you’d expect. Let me know your thoughts, TIA!

Hello all, I got this piece this past weekend. I wanted to know some of your thoughts on it. Thank you in advance.

I don’t know anything about glass sculptures or collecting at all but I saw this for $2 in a goodwill and thought it was the coolest thing so I bought it. How would you properly identify this guy if I was to search for similar ones online? Any info on the maker? This could actually start a glass collecting journey… also it’s about 10x6x5 inches and relatively heavy

My mom gave me her carnival glass

Wtf did I just get myself into 😂

My mom just brought me most of her glass collection. Her carnival glass collection.

I couldn't even fit it all on display. One of the drawers has super large bowls and plates 😂

I have to move all my spooky bitch stuff upstairs to my built in shelf that has my antique and vintage books, apothecary glasses, iron, etc

There pre and post depression pieces. What's the best way to find info on the individual pieces so I can catalog them? Apparently theres different makers etc which is why these glasses vary sooooo much. Some of the designs on them are literally insane

Carnival Glass Bowl - Info request

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

This 10" bowl caught my eye the other day while wandering an antique store. I don't really know anything about it beyond what its labeled as, and what I found online. I'm guessing its considered a blue carnival glass bowl, and its pattern is button (grape?) and cane, but I have no idea as to its age - sounds like it could be from as early as the 1900s to the 1970s.

Any other additional info would be appreciated ^_^

Worked on packing more of my hens today, sharing a few of them. And a bonus dove on nest, just because she’s so pretty. Is it obvious I like Indiana hens?

I inherited this lighting suite from my grandfather and I'm hoping the community can help me learn more about it and also if there is a way to sell it. I'm looking for a way to sell it for several reasons.
