'Antique glassware' - 05/23/03 12:48 PM
It's a long shot I know and not expecting much response here but I don't suppose anyone out there knows anything about antique glassware?
I've inherited a couple of pieces from my grandmother. I think they're beautiful and wouldn't part with them for the world, but they have absolutely no history with them, no distinguishing marks that I can find, so at the moment they could be mass-produced from Woolworths or genuine antiques for all I can fathom.
I've spent many frustrating hours trying to find similar pieces on the net, but unless you really know what you're looking for it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
I'd love to know their origins though, who created such beautiful pieces....so if there is anyone out there with some knowledge or information on a website that might help me track them down, please mail me?
Thanks!
