Enameled Satin Victorian Glass Pitcher
Antique blown glass enameled pitcher. Polished pontil on bottom. Gorgeous enameled flowers. This is an old one; a lot of wear on the bottom. Satin style glass that fades to clear at bottom. It must have had a lot of gold on the upper and lower rims when it was made but most of the gold has worn off. Applied ribbed handle. No chips or cracks. Almost 11 inches tall. Probably once used for lemonade or water. Despite the age/wear it is a lovely piece of Victorian art glass to display in your curio cabinet! 11/10br#

Vintage Blown Art Glass Vase
Exquisite vintage blown art glass vase. After researching this item, I would attribute it to either Stevens & Williams Glass Co. or Webb c: 1800's. It is cased satin glass with diamond pattern; known as mother of pearl. This deep amber iridescent vase is quite stunning; much better than the photos show it! No chips or cracks. It has one tiny pin dot/bubble on exterior, see pic #8. It stands 7.5 inches tall. There is some whitish specks mainly near the top fluted rim edges; not sure what that is but I believe this was just part of the glass making process. There are some comparable Murano diamond pattern mop vases, but all the Murano items I have viewed have a white interior; this vase has a beautiful blue interior. This vase is also very smooth to the touch, unlike Murano. The pontil mark is unground and the vase is one uniform color on the exterior, not graduated color, also unlike the Murano. It has eight even flutes/flares on the top rim. The art glass books show some Webb pieces with the mop diamond pattern that date to the 1880's and another glass dealer I know says he found a similar item while researching S&W. Based on my research and experience I believe it was made by Thomas Webb or S&W, and not Murano, but you will have to be the final judge on its maker. It is an exceptionally beautiful piece; the photos just do not capture it's true beauty. 3/14br#

Victorian Satin Glass Biscuit Jar
Victorian satin or cased glass biscuit jar. Might also be Burmese glass? It displays fine on a shelf, but does have some condition flaws primarily on the lid and lid rim. The glass jar has some age/wear, but no chips or cracks. It appears that the some of the flowers are hand painted within the glass, while the leaves look like transferware. The lid is likely quadruple plate and is showing age; blotchy marks; and the handle looks like it was re-soddered at some point. But, like I said, it displays fine in a curio cabinet. 12/18br
Circa: 1800's

Antique Art Glass Biscuit Jar
Antique enameled glass biscuit jar. This is a stunning green glass jar with acid etched initials in script: 'E, then a flower symbol, then G' in script, see photo #3 and enlarge for a better view. Apparently over 300 signatures were used for Emile Galle items and research has shown the same style E, and I have located an early mark that used a capital G, (most marks had the small 'g' and were written as E. galle, but since this is just initialed it would make sense for each initial to be capitalized. I am very confident this is a Galle piece, but I will let you be the judge. In any event, it is an antique jar and gorgeous. It is embellished with enamel and gilded details. Overall condition is 'good antique'; no chips or cracks. Underside of lid is a little bit dented but this fits into the jar and does not show. It stands 7.75 tall and is quite fat. From the estate of Maxine Coombs, Alpena, MI who had a beautiful collection of antique jars and purchased at a high end auction of her estate in Michigan. daucc
