Jeannette’s Cherry Blossom pink depression glass is exceptionally pretty with the entrancing design of blossoms, leaves and cherries dangling from a stem. Sadly this popular pattern attracted unscrupulous reproductions in the early 1970s. So what’s a collector to do? You want to protect yourself, but how? You can spot most repro pieces pretty easily. I [...]

Isn’t this a neat piece? It’s the coaster in Jeannette’s Sunflower pink depression glass pattern. You can this was originally meant to be dual purpose used as either a coaster or an ashtray. If you were hosting a bridge party you would put matched ashtrays on the table between each player. If you didn’t smoke [...]

We all have candy hanging around the house this time of year so where can you put it? If you leave it out in a bowl it gets stale and if you put it in the bag in the cupboard it will slowly migrate to the back. This candy jar from Jeannette Glass is the [...]

Jeannette made Doric and Pansy for just a couple years, 1937 to 1938, and in ultra marine or teal, pink and some crystal. From what I’ve read, they made more pieces in teal than pink which is unusual compared to other depression patterns. Jeannette’s teal or ultramarine is a rich blue green color that can [...]
