Several
shelves of our Northwood Russet. Russet appears to be a color that you
either really like or hate! We like it, especially when it reflects
great gold iridescent effects.
|
We
are still looking for a few pieces in Russet! Got a diamond optic pitcher?
How about a rolled rim footed bowl with rays?

Appreciation
of stretch glass in opaque colors is also another "really like it"
or "yuck" situation. Over the years, we have gained a real appreciation
for the subtle effects achieved by applying stretch iridescence to opaque
and translucent glass.

The
opaque green and opaque yellow pieces from U.S. Glass are fairly obtainable
but we're still trying to determine all the pieces made!

Ruby
stretch glass is always popular and we are no different. Unfortunately,
since most carnival collectors also have an "appreciation" for
red stretch, our pocketbooks prohibit us from acquiring all that we would
like to have!
|
Most
people really like ruby stretch glass, and many think that it is rare. In
fact, ruby and amberina stretch is NOT rare. It is just highly desirable
and prized by both carnival and stretch collectors. As far as we know, Fenton
and Imperial are the two manufacturers that made nearly all the ruby stretch,
but there is supposed to be a Diamond bowl in ruby known. We haven't seen
it!
