Tall Glass Compote Gold Gilt Pair Honesdale Pennsylvania Glass
|
Pair of 19th century matching crystal and gold gilt tazzas. As far as my research has proven this
magnificent pair of tazzas were made by Honesdale Decorating Company in Honesdale Pennsylvania.
They are free blown then tooled into shape. The gilt decoration was applied after annealing and fired
on. These tazzas are a very impressive size measuring 11” high with a 6 ¼” diameter of the bowl. I hope
you can see the deeply engraved floral decorations which are richly incised with gold gilding. They have
a lovely scalloped edge and the tazzas have a beautiful free and natural form. They are in absolutely
perfect condition!

Exceptional Val St. Lambert Paperweight
|
Here is a rich and wonderful art nouveau era paperweight. The paperweight is in such a naturalistic
swirl form almost volcanic looking. The interesting part about this paperweight is that all the color and
design is on the outside - when you turn the weight over you can see that it is completely clear on the
inside! Quite unusual and unique! This is a very large paperweight and it feels like it weighs about 5
pounds! It is very attractive and in very good condition. It is signed Val St Lambert with the initials of the
artist in script. I believe this dates from the Art Nouveau era 1885-1915. To follow is a bit of text from the
glass encyclopedia on Val St Lambert: Cristalleries du Val St Lambert is near Liege, in Belgium,
Europe. Founded in 1825, it is still the major Belgian glassworks. It has always made a wide range of
glass, the best Val St Lambert glass rivaling any in the world. During the second half of the 19th century
they made cut crystal glass and colored Victorian styles, they were major art nouveau and art deco
glass-makers during this century. More recently their reputation is high for cut and engraved glassware.
The paperweight has an overall diameter of 4” and it is approximately 3 ¼”high.

Glass Paperweight Signed Fellerman
|
Here is an absolutely outstanding example of the world renowned glassworks of Fellerman. Fellerman is
famous for his early works of the 1970’s imitating Tiffany and other famous art glass producers. This
massive paperweight is very exciting – if it had a signature of Tiffany on it I would doubt it. The work is
excellent the spherical design and colors are just rich and elaborate. It is signed on the base of the
paperweight Fellerman 76 and that is for 1976. The paperweight measures approx 5” in diameter x 3 ½”
h. It has substantial weight to it and this one has an open blown pontil on the base. Here is a little bit of
the accreditations of Mr. Fellerman with his museum exhibitions – Corning Museum of Glass permanent

Art Glass Paperweight SignedFellerman Art Nouveau
|
This is one of the most magnificent art nouveau paperweights by Fellerman. It signed on the bottom
Fellerman F115. The colors are incredibly captivating – it is very art nouveau in design with what I
believe to be stylized daisies embracing the top of the paperweight. There are colored swirls of nicely
contrasting butterscotch and a mellow yellow. It is very iridescent with a nice satin surface. Fellerman is
famous for his early works of the 1970’s imitating Tiffany and other famous art glass producers. This
paperweight is one of Fellerman’s early pieces – his early works are highly sought after as they were
unique one of a kind items and not in production for a very long period of time. The condition is very
good and it measures 3 3/8” in diameter x 2” high. Here is a little bit of the accreditations of Mr.
Fellerman with his museum exhibitions - Corning Museum of Glass permanent collection, Corning N.Y.;

Art Glass Daum Nancy Pate de Verre Plate
|
This is one totally incredible plate! It is made of exceptionally fine crystal. Starting from the center there
is a molded portrait of Beethoven in high relief on Amethyst glass - on one side of the portrait is 1770
on the other side 1827. It measures 3 ½” in diameter - in other words it is a portrait disc annealed to the
center of the plate. The disc is then surrounded by frosted glass in the style of Lalique. The remaining
edge of the plate is pure brilliant but colorless crystal. The overall measurement is 9 ¾” in diameter.
This plate is signed “Daum 1970 Made in France #167/2000” all in diamond point script. This is a very
fine and sophisticated Plate.

R Lalique Glass Lamp Luminary Virgin & Child
|
This is one of the most fabulous Lalique pieces I have ever come across! As you can see it is of the
Virgin Mary with Baby Jesus. This same piece can be found in the book Lalique by Jessica Hodge on
page 140. It reads – “Here is an example of a rare…category in Lalique’s work, that of a religious
subject. In the 1930’s he created a number of pieces, principally panels and pendants, with subjects
drawn from Christian imagery. The commonest themes, as can be seen here, were the Crucifixion and
the Virgin and Child, and many of the larger pieces in this category were subsequently converted into
lamps. On the left is the vierge et l’Enfant table light, in clear and frosted glass, formed from a
rectangular panel intaglio-molded with a figure of the Virgin holding the Child, and set within a chrome
base. Stencil mark “R. Lalique France.” 40 cm high. The original design was first created in 1937;
relatively late in Lalique’s career and around the time he was working on his most major religious
commission, the church of St. Matthew on the island of Jersey. The rigidly frontal pose of the virgin and
the stylized folds of the garments worn by both figures reflect the influence of archaic Greek sculpture
on Art Deco designs.” It is in fabulous condition – signed on the lower right hand side in R. Lalique
France. The base is black patinated bronze and it too along with the wiring which is fairly recent are
also in very good condition. I think the pictures speak for themselves when it comes to this wonderful
piece of art! In the stand it measures 15 ¼” high and the glass piece itself measures 13 3/8”h x 3 3/8”w
x 1 5/8”deep.

gold is quite spectacular! Circa early 1900’s. They would make a fabulous Christmas gift for that special
someone. Each glass measures 3 5/8”h with a 2 ¼” diameter. Striving For Excellence It isn’t brilliance or

condition is excellent. They measure 9”h with a 4 ½” overall diameter.

possibly made by the Boston & Sandwich Company of Boston Mass. It measures 9 ¾”H with the top
opening 3 5/8” in diameter and the base 4 1/8” in diameter. I hope the picture shows the wide superb
cutting detail - It’s in a wide panel and loop design which continues down to the base. The clarity,
cutting, and style are all spectacular and very reminiscence of the work at the Boston & Sandwich Glass

Crystal Wine Goblets Engraved Dorflinger Kalana Pattern
|
10 Dorflinger wine glasses. Here is a special rare find – 10 wine glasses or goblets in the Kalana Poppy
Pattern made by Dorflinger around 1905-1906. This was a special line of floral designs developed by
the Dorflinger Company. It is interesting there is an article from an old Art & Antiques Magazine where it
covers several patterns made by the Dorflinger Company. In the article, it states that the making of this
glass required no less then five separate acid baths and that these large floral patterns were highly
prized in Edwardian times. These wine goblets are in fantastic condition – really no apology to be made
here in any way. Each wine glass measures 6 ¼” high.

Antique Vase Engraved Crystal & Silver
|
Quite the spectacular crystal & silver Vase. It is 17” tall x 61/4” diameter of the base. The engraving on
the glass vase is so finely detailed & extremely well executed. There are many subjects depicted here, a
windmill, sailboat a Chinese style gazebo, a colonial style church, birds, flowers & more. The glass vase
slips into the silver base, that is high repousse, on each side of the base there is a reserve with a
tavern scene, men sitting around a barrel drinking & gambling. Overall the base is very ornate &
hallmarked with the words Germany, a windmill & another hallmark, I think the picture of the mark will
show you. I believe the base is silver-plate or a silver on copper & dated from the early 1900’s. It is in
excellent condition with no damage of any kind.

of Early American Pattern Glass by Alice Hulett Metz on page 113.The condition of this plate is very
good ,having only the minor little stresses that one expects from a piece of this age. One medium size
flake off of the first edge scallop top right side of the plate, that’s the worst of it, then one or two other
tiny flakes, but all in all it’s just great! Be sure to browse our entire catalogue on this site for more

Very unique item – I believe it is an ashtray in the form of an open ball. It has very nice deep cutting –
made up of several different patterns. The quality of the crystal is excellent. It appears to be vintage

ashtray it has that little indentation where you could place your cigarette or cigar. It measures 3 3/8” in

Bohemian Lusters Crystals Engraved Pair
|
Here is an absolutely outstanding matching pair of fine engraved crystal Lusters.
Bohemian/Czechoslovakian – beautifully engraved with foliage, deer, castles, and stylized sun bursts.
There are florals all the way down the central column and also around the base. The work is delicate
and fine. I love that frosted engraving on the clear crystal. They are circled by 10 long very long cut
glass prisms. Overall condition is excellent except on one of the Lusters on the outside face of the rim
there is a little chip or sort of like a flake – probably the size of a pencil eraser other wise statuesque
and magnificent. They would make an excellent garniture for a mantel, side board, or sofa table.
Another interesting thing about the Lusters is that they are hollow all the way through there is no solid
bottom - if you look in through the top to the bottom you can see the table surface. I thought that was
very unusual. Fabulous 19th century bohemian Lusters - matching pair - in very good condition. They
measure 12 ¼”h with an overall diameter of 5 ¾”.
