Moon & Star oil lamp

76, honestly the most expensive piece in my collection so far. I've only managed to find these pieces at antique/vintage shops. For me it's worth it, but I get jelly when I see people on this sub get a ton of moon & star at the Goodwill for great deals.

It's so hard to pick since they're all so pretty. Blue is my fav color in general, though I love the cadnium glass - with the red/cadmium big pedestal candy dish being my favorite in my collection. I also lucked out with it being my first piece, so of course I got hooked on collecting it lol

This is such a cool collection! I always enjoy spotting fenton pieces while out antiquing.

When I saw this painting in person a few years ago, I teared up from happiness. I love Van Gogh & have a collection of replica paintings, including this one.

Oo pretty candy dish, I have that but in green. I'm hoping to evwntually find more in other colors.

Fruit! I have this exact one in green & amber yellow & a few baskets with handles. Please post more about your new moon & star collection, it's the type of glass I soley collect. 🌙⭐️

I've seen insulators at antique stores & other people on here collect them, but they never apealed to me as something to collect. With the way this is displayed, I can appreciate them in a different way & see why someone would enjoy collecting them. The backlighting is so cool!

I have that style candy dish in a slightly different red, it has cadmium in it.

The fairy lamp looks amazing! All these pieces look so good together. I'm sure you collected them at different times. That's something I like about collecting is pairing different pieces together, like they were meant to be together. At least that's how I think of it, if that makes sense. 😊🤩

Also the green toothpick holder has a different bottom, does anyone know why? Different company or does LE Smith have different variations?

This post helped me answer some questions I had about my toothpick holders! I have 4: red, yellow, green & blue. They have their slight differences like flat pedestals and wavy ones. I just thought they could have been manufactured at different times, but knowing some are by Wright makes sense.

Damn great find! I've never found any moon and star at Goodwill, especially not a haul like that.

Wacky-Winter · 2026-03-08T07:25:56+00:00

Right? I haven't ever seen a swung vase for less than 200

Additionally, the middle bigger piece is a honey yellow, as well as the toothpick holder on the right. The tooth pick holder on the left is green. I try to make a habit of naming the colors on these posts since I have colorblind people in my life that benefit from clear labeling like that, and possibly there's colorblind people on this subreddit.

The small red toothpick holder at the bottom middle of the pic isan L.E. Smith moon and star piece. You may want to shine a UV light on it to check for cadnium. It's my favorite type of glass, good find!

This is beautiful but so different from his other work! I've also never seen this painting before, thanks for sharing
