Today we’re showing one simple table set with a few pieces of cobalt blue and amethyst purple depression glass. All the patterns shown are from Hazel Atlas glass, made in the late 1930s. The plates, cups and sherbets are Moderntone and the creamer and sugar are Newport. Can you see how similar these patterns are? [...]

I was going through my old posts and realized we’ve shown tables with Sharon, Princess, Mayfair, Floral, Doric, Windsor, American Sweetheart and Dogwood depression glass [...]

Welcome to this week’s Tablescape Thursday with blue depression glass on a vintage tablecloth. Doesn’t this make you feel like going outside and sitting in the rocker on the porch? The tumblers and the big creamer are Aurora, pretty design of vertical panels. The small plates I’m using as saucers are Royal Lace and the [...]

This is an interesting lot of 3 Hazel Atlas depression era shakers. The blue Moderntone ones don’t have lids. The lids to the clear ribbed set fit the Moderntone shaker bases but aren’t original. These clear shakers are marked Airko and the lids have a neat white plug insert with cork backing. The metal lids [...]

It’s February. Valentines Day is over. It’s still winter here in mid-Michigan – but it was sunny today; the birds were singing and it was in the 40s. I can see spring. So let’s toss off the winter blues and celebrate those early signs of warm breezes, nesting birds and daffodils peeking through the snow. [...]

There’s a myth that depression glass is valuable, especially pink depression glass. This is simply not true – for most pieces and most patterns – but there are a few patterns that are downright pricey. The reason for the price difference is the most expensive patterns are less common and more popular. It’s classic demand [...]

We went antiquing today at Jeffrey’s Antique Mall and found lots of great stuff. I didn’t buy much, just this Florentine Poppy green sherbet and some Tiffin Eldorado etched crystal tumblers. Eldorado has griffins in the etch, very special. I don’t have the Eldorado photographed yet but these Poppy sherbets are listed. Florentine Poppy green [...]

Royal Lace is a beautiful pattern that has the best elements of depression glass – gorgeous colors, lovely design, an array of interesting shapes and pieces. Hazel Atlas made this pattern from 1934 to 1941 in pink, green, clear and some cobalt blue. The cobalt blue didn’t come out until about 1938 while green, pink [...]

Welcome and thank you for visiting. Also thank you Susan of Between Naps on the Porch for hostessing this fun Tablescape event each week. This week we’re using a different green depression glass pattern, Florentine or Poppy from Hazel Atlas. This is another of my favorites for its exuberant design of poppies strewn all over the [...]
