Slag Glass soapdish

This weighty piece was bought in DC after attending the American Glass Collectors annual conference. I found a woman who had a number of slag glass pieces. Apparently during the war she had collected it during the war in England and then it someone got sold largely to this person.

Deco glass mushroom

This is the first piece of glass that I ever bought. Fortunately when buying it I was told that it was part of an estate. The owners had gone to London in the 20's and had bought a container load of items for their home to be. It was a common occurence in that time. I was intrigued by the colour combination and was from there wanted to learn more. It was to lead me on many journeys of glass.

French Glass vase

These two vases were found separate however are an identical match. It has a dramatic sun motiff and are particularly heavy.

Slag Glass

This glass is sometimes called End of Day however it was produced in Sowerby (north of England) for 20 years from roughly the 1870's to the early 1890's. The unattractive name makes it all the more appealing. It is dense and heavy and definitely one of my favorite.
