Tiffin Jap Lily (2)It’s funny how events unfold.  I picked up two of these stems recently.  I rarely buy two of anything any more, but they were of interest and I hadn’t seen the pattern.

Lo and behold I came across two more a couple weeks later!  I prefer to have a set of four for use or to sell.  Now…I best make sure they ARE the same.  I think the last two are still in a bag somewhere.

This is the pattern Jap Lily.  The Elegant and Everyday Glass Forum dates this piece from 1918-1934.

Line # could be 14179.

Bryce Line #350, Etch Unidentified

The reference books are the greatest help.  I picked up four of these stems in Waterloo this weekend.  There were eight available, but only these were mint.  I knew I had seen this pattern before, and sure enough, with the help of my handy dandy book – Florence’s Glassware Pattern Identification Guide, Volume III: Early Identification for Glassware from 1900 through the 1960’s – I found the pattern.

Florence (page 107) identifies the blank as #350, with an unidentified etch.  The producer was Bryce, Higbee & Company and the production year was 1916.  Six items were made in the crystal colour only.

This is a small stem with a pretty shape and etch.  Likely for a sipping beverage of some sort.

I only have one of these stems. Pretty etch.  I have no recall as to where it was purchased, and I’ve never seen the etch elsewhere.  This one now has a significant chip in its base.  It got banged about after being used.  As much as you hate to see a glass damaged, its kind of like a new car – you can relax once the first scratch appears.
