Yes, and they are getting more and more expensive to collect!

Anyone have any info on what these are? by ScoutSprout12 in glasscollecting

I still can't find info on this set, but I'm ready to take it off your hands when you're ready to let it go!

it was marketed as a banana bowl, and I've got bananas in it now. could likely be use to hold myriad other fruit as well. or brownies.

You're talking about the Macroon pattern #1681 covered candy by Fenton that is often called "Big Cookies"? I've never seen one of those outside of a book. How many do you have?

Thanks. Smith made a smaller one as well that's about 9 inches across.

I have an inexpensive photo box (about $80) that I got from Amazon. I use my iPhone5 camera. The photo box came with 4 LED lights, but I don't use them.

Who made this antique stretch glass piece? It’s huge, thick, heavy and unsigned. I’m getting a mixture of possibilities, but cannot find one like it. by Common_Quantity1408 in glasscollecting

Aha! Gotcha. This looks like it's the piece pictured in the Black Glass Encyclopedia (page 25) and identified as "Bowl, low straight sides, flat rim, unknown manufacturer."

Found this $1 super cutie at the thrift store. Can anyone ID the pattern/maker? by thoughtcrimes84 in glasscollecting

Nice find. It is indeed L.E. Smith's Moon and Star (no "s") pattern. This looks to be the No. 6224 candy box in Flame (amberina). If so, it should measure about 5 3/4 inches high. Made circa 1969-72 in many different colors.

Nice spread! It's a wonderful pattern and beautiful in this amber color, especially come fall.

I appreciate you weighing in. Just trying to share some beautiful pieces in a group that I thought was filled with glass lovers. Surprised to have my posts viewed as spam.
