5 small glasses [by debc]

Other Type of Glass:: 5 small glasses
I have these 5 little glasses, which I thought of as shot glasses. Unearthed them yesterday thinking perhaps I will sell them. I remember seeing these in my parents bar in the 1950's and that is all I can tell you as far as age. Amber etched bowls with bubble bottoms I am thinking hand blown? No two are the same and there are imperfections in most. One has some black pitting on the inside, little dots that I noticed for the first time today. That one also has an X etched or scratched into the bottom. The other has an elongated bubble inside the stem and has a Y on the bottom. Have pics of those and will post. They hold a maximum of 2 tablespoons of liquid. They measure for the most part 2.75" tall. 1.25" in diameter. Bases are 1" tall leaving 1.75 for the bowls. One of these is slightly smaller than the rest. Very finely made, the bowls are very fragile, but no chips on any of them. I have searched and searched and not found anything like these and am looking for some direction as to how to price and if there is any history to them I would love to hear it.

Hi there....I had heard at one point 1000 were produced, but there are a lot of these out there still and many have been broken over the period between 1880 and now - so I think production must have been much more than 1000 originally.

The most common is marigold, the orange color seen in the Ripple vase above. This color is always found on clear glass, but other colors are defined by the color of the glass, not the iridescent coating. The dark colored bowl above (Northwood's Grape and Cable) is purple or amethyst, the toothpick holder is green???????

Canadian Pressed Glass:: Favorite piece of glass
Hi there - yes I have both versions. The one in the photo is the open version - it also comes in a covered version with an ground stopper - they ground the inside of the syrup to make the lid fit. I have both versions. Nice find. Deichmann
