In
1891, the U S Glass Co. began making pattern glass dishes
in patterns named after the states which were
members of the Union at that time.
These are now known as "The States' Patterns".
We are including a few here which are slightly peripheral to
the "official" list of patterns named for states but which
some now collect as a part of that series.
Darryl Reilly and Bill Jenks have
written a fabulous book,
U. S. GLASS THE STATES PATTERNS; An Identification
& Value Guide,
and they have generously allowed
us to use
their valuable published information
on this web site

These 2 are not exactly U. S. Glass Co. States series but can be included here. On the left is actually the COLORADO violet bowl, but it is the same size as the toothpick and fits in with a toothpick collection nicely. Besides there are no more cobalt blue toothpick holders that we know of. $90 On the right is the pretty little MANHATTAN pattern. Since 9/11 it really represents all of our states. $48 |
