We all know that pattern glass was made in goblets, table sets, etc.
but as the Nineteenth Century rolled on, glass companies began to
get more creative and/or practical in the forms they made.
Many gift items can be found in this store.

While these are probably not American made, we'll offer them here because they are clearly very early Victorian glass.  This is a pair of bobeches... candle rings.  Placed over candles (before the dripless kind were invented) they catch drips and spare the linens. 
It is a matched pair in flint, 3 1/4" in diameter with the
opening for the candle being just under 1".  $115 for this rare pair.

Inkwells were indispensable in Victorian times.  And yet we rarely see
early ones in glass.  This is especially rare because the tiny glass insert that holds
the ink and the glass lid to it are all intact.  All of the top parts are damage free, including the side 'arms' that held the pens.  There are small flakes on
3 of the 4 feet seen HERE.  It is 4 1/2" square.  $135

the original glass holder w/ no
damage whatsoever to any of the
glass. The only missing piece is
the original stopper
in the cruet. **SOLD**
BUTTON & STAR PANEL was made
by Bryce Higbee ca. 1905. The piece
here is a 6" diam. x 1 3/4" tall
condiment dish which held the
shakers & cruet - but it
was first described to us as a 'ferner', whatever that is. It could be used
to serve any number of purposes. $34.
RIVERSIDE GLASS WORKS made
trays such as these to hold their
patterned cruets & shakers.
On the left is the RANSON
pattern $95.
We have several Riverside
cruets for sale HERE.

This appears to be the
Riverside Double Daisy pattern tray but that pattern was not made
in vaseline so it must
have been used with their other
vaseline patterns. $110
The Esther condiment
tray by Riverside ca.
1896 is a scarce item.
It is 6" x 9 1/8" incl.
the tab handle which

THOUSAND EYE aka DAISY aka THREE KNOB is a very popular
EAPG pattern. It was made by Adams Glass Co. during the 1870s in blue,
amber, apple green, canary (vaseline) & clear in nearly 100 different forms.
On the left is the blue little 3 1/2" x 4 7/8" novelty cart with molded
wheels which is known as a "salt cart". It is fairly rare. $125

A few EAPG patterns were made in the form of a honey dish. They are flat
on the bottom to accept the cut comb of honey & they all had a lid
to keep the honey clean. This honey dish has a flat chip on one corner
of the outer edge of the base. See it HERE. The open space is 4 1/2" x 6"
& the outside is 6" x 7 3/4". It is $95.
We also have a covered honey dish in amber for $135.
This section has some little
2 - 2 1/2" jars that are generally called 'Pomade Jars'.  Their original use is unknown, but they are fun pieces of 100 year old glass & make great gifts.  This one has a glass lid & is the BANDED PORTLAND aka Virginia pattern made by U S Glass Co. ca. 1901. We have one with and one without gold.  $55 each
The next few shelves show some
dresser jars or powder jars probably
meant for cosmetics.  But they can be
used for other purposes too. 
They are about 3" wide.
The one above is flint glass TREE OF
LIFE or Overshot pattern made
possibly by Portland Glass Co.
ca. 1850s or 60s.  It is missing its lid
which would have a serpent for a
finial.  $145
 
The gorgeous amber dresser set above is not EAPG but it is
late 19th c  or early 20th c glass.
It consists of five pieces: a tray  6 1/2" x 9", a round 3 1/2" 'box',
and a rectangular 2 1/2" x 3 3/4" 'box'. 
It is a lovely vintage design with no damage whatsoever to any of the pieces.
The whole 5 piece set is $65.
What are the odds of finding a 100+ year old soap dish (yes, it glows yellow under UV) and having a friend who shares a 1903 Butler Bros. ad for it?  It has design elements of several EAPG patterns but apparently is not a part of any pattern line although the ad calls it a 'pattern'.  It is 4 1/4" wide and 5" long and has a small chip on the base a a couple of the 'beads' are dinged.  The ad prices a dozen @ 44 cents.  Packaged "2 dozen in a wood box, no charge for the box."
Heck of a deal!  However, 109 years later,
the box is gone & the price has gone up.. it is now $55.
Here we have 2 pomade jars and one powder jar.
On the left is the Minnesota pomade missing its lid. 
It is 1 3/4" tall and 2 1/4" diameter at the top.  $38
DELAWARE is one of the U S Glass Co. States' Series patterns ca 1899.
The next 2 pieces have the rose blush colored flowers & leaves & gold trim.
The middle DELAWARE pattern pomade jar is missing its lid also. Adding your
lid would make the piece valued at $175.  Just the base is $80.
On the right is a DELAWARE powder jar.
It is $85 & would be worth more than double with the lid.

Here are two more Dresser Jars.
On the left is Carnation pattern made by New Martinsville ca. 1906.
The lid is original, if dented a little. $44

On the right are 2 views of the Minnesota States' pattern by U S Glass Co.
ca. 1890s.  We are uncertain if the lid is original but it fits
& is in good shape.  $55

MANHATTAN pattern by the U S Glass ca. 1902 was rarely sold with ruby stain.
This is one of those pieces in the form of a vanity powder jar.
It is 4 3/4" in diameter. The ruby staining is exquisite.  There is one teeny flake under the lid which happened in-the-making because it is covered by the ruby stain.
$125
A dresser jar or powder jar in the PIONEER Pattern is Westmoreland's pattern #15 ca. 1890s.
It can be used on the dresser or
in the kitchen.   $55
This is actually a covered butter in
Higbee's Landberg pattern ca. 1910. 
The pattern is actually Co-Op's ROYAL ca. 1894.
But it can be used to hold anything. $65
See more Dresser Set items HERE.


Not all small pieces were called 'salt dips'
by their makers.  These teeny little dishes
are Heisey's FANCY LOOP pattern 'celery dips', made ca. 1898.  They are only 3 1/8" across. We have 5 @ $34 each.
And this little piece is a pen wipe in the WESTMORELAND pattern by Gillinder
ca. 1889.  It was meant to hold boar
bristles to wipe your writing pen tip. 
It is 3" in diameter and 2" high.  $42

Close Up photo on the right.
VEGETABLES! in the bottom of a
relish dish! It is pictured in Metz &

beautifully molded. Look at the
details of the onion slice in the left
hand corner, a tomato slice & a
pickle, seeds and all! $48
We have many more relish dishes
HERE.
CHANDELIER aka Crown
Jewel (s) is a pretty pattern by O'Hara
Glass Co. ca. 1888.  This is an ink well &
at one time included an insert. But the
glass has outlasted the material of the insert. Not a common form for EAPG patterns.   It is 2 1/2" tall and the opening at the top is 2" across.
$55
   
First is a Hobbs TREE
OF LIFE pattern nappy or dish.  It is leaf-shaped;
5 3/4" long & from the
ca. 1879.  See blue ones
HERE. We have several

ca. 1894. This 4" x 8"
relish dish works well
for a serving spoon rest
or even a rest for this
smaller spoon, say, near
the coffee server. $35
ROSE SPRIG was
made by Campbell Jones
ca. 1886. This small, deep "sitz bath" sauce dish is perfect for a spoon rest
by the coffee pot or
wherever.  **SOLD**
Above are some small handled dishes that may originally have been made as relish, or sauce or olive dishes.  But we have found they are very nice spoon rests by the coffee pot or on the serving table. 
We have many more such versatile dishes
HERE.
Consider a matching small dish such as the Isis one on the right, to hold your sweetener packets.  Only $18

While we're getting creative, here are a couple of very unique 100 year old
"Chip 'n Dip" sets for your entertaining, Victorian style. 
On the left is the blue Birch Leaf pattern for the more genteel event for $85.
We have a clear set like it with 2 small dishes for $65

The Daisy & Button blue set is going to fit better on Game Day.
It has a number of nics around the top edges which, when
served with enough beer would not be noticed.  $55.

    And we will never sell "sun-purpled" glass (Here's why).
