Cigarette Holder, Coloured Glass, Depression, Yellow Glass

Cambridge Cigarette Holder (1)Although cigarette smoking is considered unattractive by many people (including myself) I can remember a time when I was young when it was completely acceptable.

People had various containers for their cigarettes.  No one I knew had really fancy ones, like this one, but I can visualize this standing in someone’s house with cigarettes standing up in it.

This piece was made by Cambridge Glass.  It is from line #1337.  It is Cambridge’s Gold Krystol colour.

It could be used as a little vase.

I like the twist in the stem and the way the base turns up.

Coloured Glass, Floral Etch, Gold Krystol, Plate Etched, Water Goblet, Yellow Glass

Cambridge Apple Blossom (1)Look at these very pretty goblets made by the Cambridge Glass Company.  These glasses are etched with the Apple Blossom plate etch (#744). The shape is line #3130.

The entire glass is shaded in Cambridge’s pale yellow which was called Gold Krystol.  It is a delicate shade.

I think these stems would compliment blue china with yellow and gold details.

Animals in Glass, Coloured Glass, Lamb, Yellow Glass

Boyd's Yellow Lamb (4)When I saw this little guy I was captivated.  I was in a shop in the U.S. and they had so many animals on covered baskets.  I am very cross with myself that I didn’t pick up the camel, but oh well.  At the time I was overwhelmed with choice!

I picked up this guy because I likes the colour, which is brighter than it looks in the photo, and the look on its little face.  I don’t know anything about Boyd’s, other than they are still in operation.

It is marked with the 1988-1993 trademark.
