A number of recent Heisey purchases to show off. \u00a0These are lovely.<\/p>\n

Second Update –<\/p>\n

\"Heisey<\/a>This is the liquor cocktail in Heisey’s pink – Flamingo.<\/p>\n

Pretty, although I do like Tiffin’s ‘pink’.<\/p>\n

First Update – August 11, 2014<\/p>\n

\"Heisey<\/a>Funny to read this two+ year old post. \u00a0Those glasses have long been sold, although I still have the Cherokee Rose pieces, except that I have eight or nine I think.<\/p>\n

But…I still do like the Heisey pieces. \u00a0Have something cool coming in the mail soon – a rooster cocktail shaker. \u00a0Looking forward to seeing it.<\/p>\n

Just an added note. \u00a0The Wabash blank is #3350 and t\"Heiseyhe Frontenac etch is Etch #440.<\/p>\n

I ordered these online as I wanted to see the Green Moongleam stem and base. \u00a0I don’t have any pieces of Heisey in any of their colours. \u00a0Very pretty, although the pieces arrived with a little more damage than the seller\u00a0reported. \u00a0I think I’m fussy when I am buying or selling with regard to damage, even minor. \u00a0I report all in my listings.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless the shade is pretty, as is the name.<\/p>\n

Original post – February 5, 2012<\/p>\n

This plate etch is called Frontenac and the stem\/blank\/shape is called Wabash. \u00a0The patent for this glass was filed in December of 1922 by Joseph O. Balda on behalf of A.H. Heisey & Co. of Newark, Ohio. \u00a0The patent was granted in February of 1924. \u00a0The glasses were produced from 1922-42. \u00a0I have four water glasses that I bought online. \u00a0They are very beautiful and the stem is gorgeous. \u00a0I have a hankering for Heisey pieces. \u00a0I am looking for more of these stems and have my eyes on some ebay offerings. \u00a0I just bought four Tiffin Cherokee Rose waters though (now I have eight) and I’ll have to see what the budget can bear!\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
