Amber Glass, Colored Glass, Coloured Glass, Depression, Plate Etched, Water Goblet

I saw these online and liked the colour and the unique etch. They are very striking looking ‘in person’.  The amber colour is very rich.

While the smaller pieces are not as popular as the larger water goblets, they came as a set.  I think they would be perfect for sipping a cocktail!

Colored Glass, Coloured Glass, Creamer, Plate, Platonite, Saucers, White Glass

I wish I could remember where I bought these pieces creamer, two saucers and a small plate.  I do know it was on our spring road trip through Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana and I can recall the shop, but not the location.  Oh well, I guess is really doesn’t matter.

I saw these pieces and remembered them from a book I have.  I’d never seen them before, nor since.

The lines on the saucers differ in colour.  One is a deep red and one looks more like a salmon.  It doesn’t look like the colour has faded – looks original.  I don’t know if it was meant to be red, or if pinkish salmon was also made.

Platonite is the name of the glass I think.  Moderntone is the line (again, I think).

These are not Depression pieces, but made in the late forties/early fifties.

My book shows this line with willow designs in red and blue.  Very pretty.  I like the cobalt willow decoration and would love to see these.

Colored Glass, Coloured Glass, Depression, Red Glass, Ruby Glass

I don’t know whether this line was originally called “Golf Ball” or if this the moniker that collectors have given the line due to the obvious distinguishing ‘bead’.  Somewhat reminds me of Cambridge’s line 1066 – Aurora.

I really like the deep, rich ruby colour.
