EAPG (Early American Pattern/Pressed Glass) has been my passion. I study & collect EAPG. I host an old glass discussion group since so many of us have wonderful things left by older relatives… beautiful pieces of glass which call out for recognition.

Sometimes other materials such as silver, pewter, or pottery can appear here too...thus the "plus." The Victorian period is so fascinating, & in many ways mirrors our lives today. Think of how many hands, how many generations have held that neat old piece of 100+ year old glass; what festivities it might have attended! I am not an expert…on anything! However, learning never ends, so feel free to share! Send inquiries about wanted items which might not be listed.

And do check out my newest area, JEWELRY. Most pieces have some, if not all, hand-work. Many are unique. Some components may be imported; some may have my own special additions; some may be exclusively my own creation. Materials will be listed as best I can. I have a particular fondness for natural stones and gems, silver and vermeil (gold over silver); occasionally gold-filled or gold-plate are more suited to a particular stone.

I’ve gotten the collecting/creating spirit from my parents. Antique phonographs, costume jewelry, and a few other items are family-collected or inspired. Space, or the lack of space, is my motivator/limitator.

All glass is clean; all items are described carefully. I package well. Please note: the phonographs or other large items (noted in listing), must be picked up or shipping provided for by buyer.

When I can pack multiple lots together safely, I will, and if necessary change the shipping charge. That is: ONLY if I can pack them together SAFELY. My goal is to make your purchase a pleasant experience, one which makes you say, AHHH, or Great!, when you open your package.
