Fenton Lotus Bowl

It has the oval, so not Florentine Green. I just can't tell what color this thing is.

12" footed compote in Canary. I love this thing! It's glorious. Glad it arrived safely!

Today's scores

Had my first ever luck at an antique store today, driving through the boonies. Just sitting on the table, two opaline lampshades for $5 a pair. I didn't bother to check for damage, I was so excited I didn't even care. The tag even said they glowed. Sitting next to them was a tag that said "slag lamp??$19." Yoink! When I got home, I had these two beautiful opaline cordials waiting for me, Mosser Eye Winker for scale 😂

Pulled Feather Vase

Last blind buy, I swear xD. These are normally hella expensive, so I couldn't resist. Orient and Flume 4" pulled feather vase. Vaseline?!

Bohemian Blind Buys

The candlestick was labeled PV French Opaline, but the pontil scar is telling a different story. The 8" bud vase was labeled Harrach/Franz Welz Tango vase. I suspect these are both from the 1800s. What color do they glow?!

Antique Bohemian Opaline

I was hoping for uranium, but I'm not really disappointed. That cadmium/selenium glow is 🔥🔥🔥

Orient and Flume

Most of them do, how about mine?! I don't care either, way. I collect eggs 😂

LG Wright made by Fenton, satin opalescent Topaz "Wreathed Cherry" open sugar. I had never seen satin opalescent glass quite like this, and it was love at first sight. Now for the creamer 😅

This is one of those pieces where I didn't really care about spending too much for manganese glass 😂. I wish it was one of their fancier uranium pieces, but I have a hard time spending $200 on a paperweight. I love the scales!

About 6" tall, weighs 2lbs. Polished base and ground pontil. Nice amber selenium glow. Copper sparkles throughout. Could this be Murano?

The old vs the new! Satin Mt Washington and shiny Fenton (I think). The 8" vases are unmarked. Fenton made Burmese from 1970 and didn't stamp their glass until 1973, so unmarked examples should exist. I just love these tight ruffles.

I bought a double pickle castor thinking I was going to replace the inserts. Always ask for measurements 😅. It's about 1/4" too small for my vaseline inserts, and that made me sad but the amount of detail in the frame, lid, and even the glass made me want to keep it. I love the toning too. Part of the collection now!

I love these little wine glasses from the 1800s. The stems are amethyst manganese glass and the cups are vaseline/uranium. It's rare to find purple and uranium together.

So I finally broke down and bought some fairy lamps. They weren't cheap, and they're reproductions. They all have the Wilkerson mark, made from old Fenton molds. I love them though! They're adorable and they glow well. My first cobaline and fairy lamp in the same piece!

So, I've been looking for one of these I could afford for a while. Today's the day, but what did I buy? It looks like Ferro & Lazzarini glass, but it has a French Schneider signature. Murano style, or fake signature?!

u/Cy-Clops- — 9 days ago

I don't think this is Burmese, but it sure looks like it. I believe it's cased with pink uranium custard, inside and out. It's 10" by 6" and weighs a few pounds. It's not sparkly satin, or cased like my Satinato Vetro Artistico Veneziano Burmese. The filled pontil on the bottom makes me immediately think of Bohemian glass. There is also a pontil scar on the lid, covered with a finial. It glows about like my Mt Washington Burmese. Brighter than Italian Burmese, but not as bright as Fenton or Pairpoint Burmese. It's covered in straw marks and ash marks, and I can just tell this piece is very old. The base has been cut/polished so it sits perfectly flat. Anyone recognize it?!

LG Wright satin vaseline Daisy and Button, pattern by Adam's & Company, possibly made by Tiffin. They're very heavy and bright! They're going to match my pickle castor, which is in the mail. I also bought a factory second/gift shop Burmese vase. It's bulbous, thick, and chunky. And, like all my Fenton Burmese, very spicy!

u/Cy-Clops- — 13 days ago

This was labeled as a vase. I'm going to need a GC to confirm, but it looks like low-content uranium. Very low glow in 395 like Vitrock. Deep, swirly glow in 365nm like Kanawha slag glass. Very thick, heavy, and beautiful. Let me know if you see a Gibson Burmese tumbler from 2004 xD

u/Cy-Clops- — 14 days ago

Today's new piece arrived, and it's a basket/vase? I believe this is Duncan and Miller, but someone correct me if I'm wrong. This is the 9" version. Thanks for looking!

Beautiful 1970s Italian Burmese 9" cruet. From my research, most of these are either marked Vetro Artistico Veneziano or Fratelli Toso. Rough ground pontil, Italian Satinato cased Burmese. Because it's cased, it doesn't glow like antique Burmese or Fenton. It's definitely uranium though, and it's rather large for a cruet(small decanter?). Thanks for looking!
