Needle Etch

My wonderful pal Mary Lou (from Thunder Bay) sent this photo (on the left) of a glass that had been her mother’s.  I do not recognize it, but will hit the books to see if I can determine its provenance.  Anyone else is welcome to identify it.  The photo on the right is a lone glass that I acquired in a junk store.  The etch nor the stem are the same, but the layout and concept are similar.  Thought it worth showing.

Needle Etch

I picked these two needle etched stems up at a flea market I think.  I used to buy odd pieces, but now I try to buy  a minimum of 4 stems in the same pattern.  Not that I worry about serving matched glasses.  If I ever decide to sell most people seem to like to buy 4 or  more (unless they are completing a set).These were pretty though.  Although similar, they are not an exact match.  Their small size leads me to think they are for cordial or sherry or some other sipping beverage.  Never been able to identify them, but would love to hear from someone who knows the etches.

Cut, Edwardian, Needle Etch

Here is an etch that I think is more commonly seen in the United Kingdom.  I had picked up stems for ages and hadn’t been able to identify it until I came across a photo on ebay.  Then I ordered the publication -Pall Mall Glass by Hugo Wildblood.  I learned that these glasses were made in the first half of the 20th century.  They were made by various factories and that the high quality pieces were attributed to Kosta.  There are a number of pieces available.  I have three or four shapes.  Very pretty.
