Charming little 4 inch EAPG cordials

These adorable little cordials are an example of Early American Pattern Glass. This is a huge and wonderful category of glassware to immerse yourself in. The patterns are endless, most pieces are very affordable and are truly elegant and represent the total devotion early american craftsmen had to their product. Most made at the end of the 19th century and early 20 th century, they give you a glimpse into a world and lifestyle gone by. EAPG, a wonderful world of glass.

American Bisque Figural Head Vase

If you love head vases, I have an unusual one for you. Is American made pottery, circa 1940. She's heavy like pottery, unlike the fragile Japanese made varieties from the same era. I love to collect the American bisque figurals. I have several of them on shelves in my home. Lots of girls in various pale vintage pinks and blues and yellows as well as beige. This is a fun category to collect because there were many made, they were durable and lasted forever and they can be found at shops and flea markets everywhere at great prices. They can be collected in groups by size or color. Let's here it for American Bisque!
