Plate Etched, Sherberts, Water Goblet

056I was getting ready to post this water goblet and thought I’d add to any earlier Fry postings.  I wonder if I still have these sherberts.  I have a big TV cabinet with a recessed top and tend to store sherberts up there (where they can get nice and dusty!)  I’ll have to look.

Anyway, same etch DE (Deep Etch) 107.  I have found out that the blank is Fry’s line #5119.  Can’t recall where I bought these two pieces.  But I still have the dog with steak thing going on when I see this pattern!

p.s.  The yellow Lucite necklace now belongs to one of my daughters!

Original post – May 30, 2012

We took a beautiful drive up to Port Perry yesterday.  There are two great vintage consignment stores on the main drag.  At the first I bought a pretty yellow Lucite necklace.  At the second, I added to my collection of sherberts.  Got four (one with chips) for $10.00.  I snatched them off the shelf like a dog going for a steak.  I knew I already owned some DE 107, but couldn’t recall the blank.  Wouldn’t have mattered, I would have bought them anyway!

I’ve shown this pattern in another stem.  Saw this recently in Oshawa.  I was sorry that I sold the earlier stems and jumped at the chance to buy this.  You don’t see Fry stems kicking around very often.

These pieces were produced in 1917.    I call it a low sherbert, but replacements.com has a different stem that they call the low sherbert.

The optic is wide and called a ‘rib’ optic.

Pretty.

Beaver Valley Glass Co. (subsidiary of Fry Glass) Japanese Maid Iced Tea

Geisha, Iced Tea, Japanese Maid, Plate Etched

Beaver Valley Geisha (2)I know I am forever saying – “Isn’t this so beautiful” OR “Isn’t this the most beautiful” etc., etc.  But this REALLY IS so beautiful.

I have long longed for this piece, ever since I saw a photo in The Collector’s Beaver Valley GeishaEncyclopedia of Fry Glassware.  I had never seen it ‘live’.

I came across it on Etsy and thought – “Yahoo!”  I contacted the seller, who was in the process of moving and couldn’t find the cup.  Then he had thought it was lost. Then he found it, and now it is mine – yahoo again!

I’ve seen this etch called Japanese maid, Japan Maid and Geisha.  It also comes etched on a teapot and a jug.  I’d love to put my hands on those too.  In the interim, this is a keeper!  Hopefully I can acquire Beaver Valley Geisha (3)others.

I’ve played with the image so that the etch can be more easily seen.  It is very delicate.

Fry DE 107 Jabot

We were away this weekend visiting family in the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge, Ontario area.  It was a great opportunity to go antiquing and thrift shopping (if this is a real verb).  We both bought ‘stuff’ that we didn’t need.  I will be showcasing some of my great purchases.  Some are not glass related.  Lots of other collections to showcase some day.

In any event….I have featured this pattern.  Nonetheless it is always worth a look. Fry’s DE (Deep etch) 107 also called Jabot.  Old – 1917-ish.

I haven’t identified the purpose of these two glasses – some kind of dessert for sure.  But oh so very pretty and thin.
