I have no idea why this etch – #429 – is named “Zodiac”.  It doesn’t appear to have any of the commonly known signs of the zodiac – no lions, archers or water bearers, etc.

I don’t consider it to be pretty, but it is of course interesting. According to Ream, Bredehoft and Bredehoft in Encyclopedia of Heisey Glassware: volume one, this plate etch was introduced circa 1919 and discontinued by 1928.

Over the years I have wavered between thinking that I preferred Heisey’s stems to Cambridge’s or vice versa.  In the end I tend to feel compelled to pick up stems by Heisey.

I have owned a few on the Wabash blank, but never this etch – #166.

According to Ream, Bredehoft and Bredehoft in Encyclopedia of Heisey Glassware: volume one, this pantograph etch was introduced circa 1920 and discontinued by 1937.

It was difficult to capture the design effectively, but it is very pretty.

Still love these pieces.  Here is a better photo of the etch on the stem.

I actually had nine of these stems – long story.  I now have eight again.  I believe in using my glasses.  I set our Thanksgiving table with my Belle le Rose pieces. Unfortunately I knocked one over and it broke.  Discouraging as you can’t run down to Walmart to replace it.  But….the table looked gorgeous!

I hope I am more careful at Christmas!!!!!

Heisey Belle Le RoseI have been waiting for these goblets for ages.  I have looked at these online on and off for months, if not years.  Finally, either the price was right or I just felt rich! They do not disappoint.

When I was at the Heisey Museum last summer I saw a piece of Belle-Le-Rose.  I commented that they didn’t have many pieces.  The attendant told me that the pieces are difficult to locate (I didn’t ask why, should have!).Heisey Bell Le Rose (2)

I now have 8 water goblets and the two lite candle holder.  I am thinking that I will keep these pieces for personal use and not try to sell them.

The stem is #5009 – Queen Ann and the etch is #501, Belle-Le-Rose. It was introduced in 1938 and discontinued in 1942.

Gorgeous x 10!
