The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
William replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Did score yesterday, haven't had a chance to dig into it yet though. Today! Got an old Skippy peanut butter jar out of the deal too π -
WV glass - Any Blenko collectors out there?
William replied to schmoozer's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Darn, I tried π I wasn't sure with the glass itself, but saw some of your pieces appear to be crackle glass. I should spend a little time checking out the product sites when I get a chance. I dealt with some glassware back in the day but not enough only to be familiar with a handful of makers. Worth a shot π -
Mojo, you are a riot, man. That was great π€£

Nice combo! π

Going to be another fun option for us collectors....numbers, letters, all kinds of punctuations. Maybe there's a wild mib out there with multiples on its face? We'll see π

Let this one go? Like this man said in the commercial (Geico I believe?), "No, no, no, not today!" π€£

I was guessing either Master or maybe Akro

In one of your pictures, in the back, I think I see the head of a fish, the fish is multicolored? Just curious, because I remember seeing a blown glass fish at one of my haunts... -

Interesting how glass can be made in a wood mold then spun too eliminate the mold lines. When I was antique dealing years ago, I came across a few pieces. I never collected Blenko but was interested enough at the time too look it up. It is nice quality and beautiful. It can be tough too identify with such a small percentage (if that's indeed correct) having been actually marked. The few pieces I had showed off tooling marks and pontils if I remember correctly. Maybe I'll keep my eyes open while treasure hunting, post some pics of any possibilities I come across! Great collection you have indeed! -

I like yours, couldn't get much closer to a heart than that, but who knows what's out there...I have found a few with "numbers" also.

Never saw one like this, happened during manufacturing I suppose. The pinkish tones and how you can't see through it are interesting...

Aww, that's a lotta cat π my 2 big ones pictured in this thread were big also, as seen by the laundry basket they are sharing. Dominique was 16 pounds and Gabrielle was 15 pounds. Little Brittney was lucky to ever hit 8 pounds! Looked like a kitten her whole life.

Thanks for the input and opinions everyone! Thank you Steph for the tootsie pics!

I wanted it to be Pelt too, nothing inside the amber glass except bubbles. There's one thick hunk at the base of the smaller window against the glass that's visible when turning the marble in hand. (Where you see the 2 points sticking up in that window). I'm happy the consensus is Pelt π
