Isn’t this pretty? Heisey Glass was known for the quality of their stemware and their elegant etchings and one of the most popular is this fine Orchid etch. Orchid is a plate etching, meaning the goblet was coated with wax, artisans applied tissue templates to the surface, the design was scribed through the tissue into [...]

One of the reasons I like vintage etched stemware so much is the sheer variety. Contemporary crystal might come in a few shapes – a couple goblets, maybe a champagne flute or tumbler – and the older patterns had special pieces for each type of wine or iced drink. Take Fostoria’s Navarre etched crystal, made [...]

If you have a wedding gift to buy you know how difficult it can be to find something meaningful that the couple will enjoy yet is different from everyone else’s present.

I wish I knew who did this. It’s a simple shape with straight stem and rounded bowl with straight sides. The etch – or sand blast – is a solid band with joined lines that have little dangles hanging down. So who did it? One possibility is Tiffin. They made a stem that Gene Florence [...]

We always have Fostoria’s Chintz etched glass in stock. And I have several of the tall water goblets. So why didn’t I sell any to Christmas shoppers this year? Because they were in a box and not listed. Oh my. I sold out of a listing earlier and forgot to add more inventory. Now that [...]

Bryce Glass isn’t the best known vintage elegant glass maker and that’s a shame. Some of Bryce’s etched patterns are wonderful and I buy them when I can. This particular design doesn’t seem to have a name. I’ve seen it called Bryce, Paige and line 854, but none of these describe the flowing lines and [...]

Isn’t this unusual? Yesterday I showed off sherbets that would be perfect for Christmas with green bowls and clear stems. Today we have another two-color goblet, this time with a twisted amethyst stem and clear crystal bowl. It is much prettier in person than in the photo because you can’t see how the stem twists [...]
