Akro Friday


Recommended Posts

Here is a nice “Milky”Oxblood, just under ¾”, there are some inclusions in this one but I have found that “Milky’s usually have a problem here or there, folds, bad coverage, as made pollution, etc. 
There must have been a very long run of these and the sorters just got bored. A flawless milky is a good find imho.
This one has great coverage and I do keep it in a drawer—one of my best.
Marble—On!!

Nice, Art, a marble for everybody - thick and full coverage on one side, thin and sparse coverage on the other.

Myself, I like the last two views.

Many of the blue and white powder jars and lids also have silver or swirls of metallic.

Current Akroware prices are the lowest that I have ever seen them. Time to buy.

The last picture has a vintage box set with a Ladies hair brush and mirror. vanity or dresser set. Years ago Bill McCaleb and myself dug these clear ornate glass pieces at Akro off and on for a year. We had no idea and never knew what they were. We threw them back in the dirt and discarded them once again. Later I found out they were the handles used for the brush and mirror in these box sets.

You have a lot of great multicolor pieces, Ron. And thanks for the info - it didn't show well in the pic but there is definitely a metallic sheen on the blue inside the lid of the powder I showed.
