Good Afternoon, My father worked for Anchor Hocking from mid 1950 to the early 80's. We had sooo much Anchorware. Cobolt Blue is my absolute favorite color. I'm still trying finish out a collection of Georgian Glassware by Anchor Hocking. My sister worked for AH and did alot of the hand painting as well.
How wonderful to have family in the glassware business. I’m sure you have a wonderful collection. Thanks for watching.
Your father & sister both had to be excellent artisans and I bet you’re so proud of them.
I have my mother's full set of blue moon and stars that I love. I think it's absolutely beautiful.
I’ve never seen a complete set together. It sounds beautiful 🤩. Thanks so much for watching.
I have the stars and moon in amberina full cannister set and a few others.
I'm wondering what constitutes "a full set"...?
Is that like a full dinnerware set or what?
What are the pieces in a full set?
❤I love glass, since I was. A child. ( I’m 70) I would go to the nearby five and dime on a Saturday morning and buy a piece of glass with my $.50 allowance after I purchased a hotdog on a bun. Looking at this glass is bringing back a flood of memories. I believe we are all kindred spirits.
What a wonderful memory. Thanks for sharing.
My dad bought a large red Moon and Stars compote for my mom's birthday in the 60s. It was displayed on the TV in the living room and held hard Christmas candy during the holidays. I inherited it when she passed. I found one in an auction a few years ago, won the lot and started an online reselling venture. I love glass!
I love glass too. That’s what started me reselling. Good luck on your online sales.
I love glass too

I started in the 80's collecting Moons & Stars. Later married my husband who also loved it. We have a lot, we moved to Florida and have looked in Antique stores here and can't find much. I was told most people who moved to Florida sold all their stuff when they retired here. Thank the Lord for eBay.
I use to have a lot of Moon & Stars pieces a few years ago!!
I'm surprised there is any Jadeite to show. I thought Martha Stewart had it all.
Lol 😂. That certainly helped with making it popular. When she focused on milk glass people went crazy for it also. It used to be when the flea market magazine focused on anything I could count on it being sold out in my booth. Funny
Lol
Lol
Wrong comment. Sorry
I came by this video this morning and just wanted to say I loved it. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the nice comment. Take a look at our depression glass videos if you get a chance.
Thank you, Lou for showing all this beautiful glass. When my brothers and I were kids, my mom would take us to "second hand" stores and antique shops. I remembered her telling me how to tell the difference between blown glass and pressed glass. Mom picked up some very beautiful pieces of glass, one of which was a green Moon and Stars banana boat. I never knew the name of the pattern but now, thanks to you, I do.
You’re so welcome. I’m glad you identified it. Thanks so much for your kind words and for watching.
Thats a great selection you're looking at.
Thanks for watching.
You sure are excellent in the glass explanation and talk gentle which you can understand slowing thanks
Thanks for your kind words and for watching.
Great video, I learned a lot today! More videos like this please!
Thanks so much for your support
Thank you so much for showing these beautiful antique pieces to us I really enjoyed watching it🌸😊🌸
You are very welcome. Thank you for watching.
Lou, I feel like you just took me on a tour of my Mother's china cabinet and boxes of her glassware that I have. I inherited everything from her and also my aunt, who had no children. She called me her favorite niece and so I inherited all of hers also. My mother and father were married in 1937, so I have some beautiful dinner sets and all sorts of glassware. One of her favorites is a green depression glass measuring cup. So, I will be using this video a lot to identify my pieces. I have the candlewick and moon glass. This is so exciting!!! Thank you so much for sharing this!😊
You are welcome. Be sure to check out my other 2 videos on depression glass and elegant glassware from the depression era to help you identify. Thanks for watching.
I just discovered your show Lou, I love it. I too collect beautiful vintage glassware.
Thank you and thanks for watching. Take a look at our depression glass videos too.
So glad I visited here today. When my Mom passed in 2020 I took a great many pieces of glassware. Among the things I have and treasure, 3 of the green grape panel vases. Thank you for letting me know I made the right decision in keeping them.
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Take a look at our depression glass videos too. Thanks for watching.
The painted Fire King was decorated by a company called Gay Fad owned by Fran Taylor in Lancaster Ohio. They bought blanks from a few other manufacturers as well. They decorated glassware from 1938 to 1963 with fruit, flowers, and ivy plus many novelty items. They used ceramic paints and baked the designs on.
Great information thanks so much.
That makes sense. The pattern looked like Desert Rose dinnerware.
¹¹
I have a gay fad cookie jar. It has baked on fruit. Pears and apples.
❤
I just found this and subscribed in less than a minute just from reading the comments. I like her personality. Very informative too.
Thanks so much for subscribing and the support.
Very nice presentation! Looking forward to seeing more!
There will be a depression glass video coming. Thanks so much for watching.
At 9:39 in the video there are Swanky Swigs out front and a few on the back of the shelf. I've been collecting Swanky Swigs for about 50 years. They held pimento cheese made by Kraft.
Thanks so much for the information. Also thanks so much for watching.
Glass junkie in me loves it all!
Me too. Thanks for watching.
Nice, you covered a lot. I have a love for Mid-Century American and Depression Glass. I'm a loyal follower now. Thanks🍷
Thanks so much for watching. Check out my other 2 videos on depression glass and elegant glassware during the depression era.
My grandmother had a set of fire king dishes. They were a peach color.
That’s neat. Thanks for watching.
Wow, I learned a lot! So many pieces I've never seen before in MY travels! I could have watched this longer (hint, hint!)---Kudos on the music today!
I have a depression glass one that I’m working on too. Thanks I’m glad the music is better.
Great video very informative thank you!
Thanks for watching.
Very informative!!
Thanks for watching.
I am collecting to get my grandma set back together of the ruby kings crown thumbprint. Was nice to see it mentioned
Thanks for watching.
Amazing! so informative and your delivery is on pint . You see, I have been collecting for just over a year and a half and, I am in the process of doing the daunting task of a detailed inventory with 1000;s of pieces yet to be identified and logged in. Your video has made the task seem manageable. I thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching. Good luck on that collection.
I have a large collection of Blue Bubble I’ve collected since the 1970’s.
I also have a lot of Golden Anniversary and Moonstone.
That Diana child’s set is awesome!
That’s really nice 👍. I had a set of blue bubble years ago and loved it. Thanks so for watching and your support.
Thank You so much for sharing your vast knowledge. I love so much of the depression era type glassware. It's wonderful to have some knowledge when going to purchase, I have been known to purchase items just by what is attractive to me! A few years ago I decided to thin out my stuff and gave a wonderful lady a large collection of milk glass. She was thrilled to have it and it made me happy just to see her face! 😊
That’s wonderful of you to give your milk glass away. That’s a great rule just to buy what you like. Now you’ll know what it is more. I finally got the taping done for more depression glass videos. It won’t be right away but it is coming. Thanks for watching.
What a lovely and enjoyable experience. I came across your posting. You have an excellent information. Thank you ❤
Thanks for watching.
Great collection, loved every minute❤thank you Ms Lou x

The King's Crown glassware is gorgeous. I have one of those white westmoreland vases. I have that white Fenton bowl as well.
I’m glad you have those beautiful pieces of glassware. Thanks for watching.

Very informative and well done. Thank you and I’ve subscribed!

My Grandfather worked for Smith glass in mt. Pleasant pa for 55 yrs . I have so much of that glassware also my Aunt worked at Bryce an I have quite a bit of that too its beautiful glass . Appreciate it.
That’s so cool. You must have a beautiful collection. Thanks for watching.
I love the green glass the ones that are Uranium, if you put a flash light to them they glow.. very pricey sometimes.. love your video.. thank you
It has become pretty popular these days. Thanks for watching.
I found three boxes of vintage glass while sorting thru my moms shed. Lots of royal ruby & some pink depression cups & saucers. I also found a couple sets of china, one from the early part of the 20th century. I’d love to ID all of it.
Try using google lens on your phone that will often lead you in the right direction. Also watch our videos on depression glass. Thanks for watching.
Enjoyed your video you did awesome job ❤
Thank you and thanks for watching.
I love glassware.
It is most definitely NIT JUNK!!
Thanks for watching
The 'jadeite' dishes remind me of pieces that came, one apiece, in boxes of laundry detergent. (Maybe Oxydol?)
This from a childhood memories of late 1940s, maybe 1950ish.
What a nice giveaway back then. Thanks for watching. Please check out our depression glass videos.
I have a complete set of pink Cherry Blossom service for 8 except for the cookie jar and the salts that I collected before the repros started, some green, some Florentine, complete sets of the children's Cherry Blossom in blue Delphite and pink, and about 100 miscellaneous pieces. Love me some DG.
Sounds like you know what you’re doing and have good taste. You might want to check out my depression glass videos. Thanks for watching.
Hi! I just found your channel and subscribed. I have a feeling I can learn a lot from your videos. Take care.
I’m glad you found us. Thanks for watching.
Great video. Most of those patterns I have not seen. I do have Iris candlesticks, Moonstone, and a few more. I remember years ago they gave away green sandwich glasses in oatmeal, I think Quaker. I love glassware, especially the colored. I hope you do more of these.
Thanks. We are working on several regarding depression glass. We just went to the largest depression glass show in our area put on by the club I used to be in. It just a lot more time because I want to be as accurate as I can. Thanks for watching.
Love, love old pieces, just insert on occasion at special gatherings.

Thanks for sharing! I’ll be watching for more info like this!! Just subbed!
Thanks so much for watching. We have a video on depression glass that just needs to be finished but the summer has been crazy busy. I appreciate your support by subscribing. Love that jadite too I actually got a piece this morning at a garage sale. I couldn’t believe it.
Hey there your my first favorite and subscription ended learning from you.
Enjoyed
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Take a look at our depression glass videos too. Thanks for watching.
Iove Royal Ruby glasses .
Definitely and I like pairing it with forest green at Christmas.
Two of my favorite places to shop were Maumee antique mall, and Blissfield.
That’s great to hear.
Wow love the blue candy dish.
Thanks for watching.
I learned something new. I wondered why that ashtray I had listed sold so fast.
I’m glad you made a sale so fast. Thanks for watching.
Love this video, I’m just learning
Thanks for watching
Wonderful! Thank you so much. This was incredibly educational and helpful.
Thanks for watching. Check out my other videos on depression glass and elegant glass during the depression era.
so beautiful collection every piece is eclectic @@👑 💲💲💲
Thanks for watching.
This was a beautiful video! I absolutely love my depression glass collection. Most were inherited from my parents, but I have also added to the collection. I recognized quite a few of your styles in my collection, such as, Ruby, Moonstone, Iris, Royal Crown, and Fenton Silver Cress, among others.
Thanks so much. Take a look at our 2 depression glass videos too. Thanks for watching.
Love the video! Great, wonderful narration.
Thanks so much.
I have that kind of rectangular Blue Bowl. It was the last present I gave my sister before she passed away I think my brother-in-law has it
Sounds like a nice gift. Thanks for watching.
Hello. First time coming across your channel. I enjoyed listening to you share your knowledge and peeping at all the pretty pieces. TFS. 😊
I’m glad you found us and welcome to the channel.
Thanks for the quick little collectible glassware. Can u give a little information about carnival glass. I’m a big collector and I think more people would if they could here the history of it
That’s something I need to explore more about. Good idea for an upcoming show.
Very Informative! I do wish, however, you would let us that don't know or would like to know, value, collectability, rarity as i, not only would like to positively identify some of my mother's pieces, whom has recently passed but to be able to convey some history and aforementioned details along with those pieces, i'm passing on to my children and grandchildren. Thank you so much❣️. I absolutely wish i had your knowledge. Love all this beautiful glassware🩵
The values are difficult for me to determine. I look in reference books with price guides although they are not current. Also I check on line for sold comps. What we thought was rare years ago often changed with the internet. I only could reference what I have seen throughout the years in my area. I’m not qualified to give accurate information in those areas. However I know many patterns through years of experience. Thanks so much for watching.
A lot of that glass ware when I was young 😢😢were collected from boxes of oats, laundry powder and etc. sorry to say I never saved it and today people kill for it. Same with glasses (jelly) when you bought gas. Also dish towels and dishes called golden wheat. I had all these when I first got married. Oh well I had it when I needed it and was thankful for it
Too bad we didn’t keep more of it. Thanks for sharing.
We had those Fireking mugs you are showing, the same color, I think we had a whole set. Beautiful is right. My sister has candlewick pieces, hobnail, and a whole host of depression glass. As I get older, I am developing a love for it myself. I have a Milkglass large bowl and single serve bowls that match. I use them any chance I get. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us.
It sounds like you have a really nice collection. I’m glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching.
What beautiful glass ware I appreciate seeing anything from the passed. What city was this store from, reason asking is, were I live I have never seen just beautiful glass. Thank ya for sharing. Enjoyed your video 🤠
It was done in a variety of stores including the 2 malls that I’m in Maumee Antique Mall in Maumee Ohio and Plaza Antiques in Lincoln Park Michigan. Thanks for watching.
@@junkingwithlou Thank ya for replying, I would love to find a store in New Mexico like the one on your video. I’m happy that I came across your video. I subscribed. Looking forward to more. 🙂
My mother had a whole set of the fire ing shiny orange dishes in the 70s
That’s wonderful.
I remember the iridescent Fireking being a premium available with purchase at the Chevron gas station during the 50s and 60s.
Wow I can’t imagine how neat that was. Thanks for watching.
Your voice sounds like Carol Burnett.
I’ve never been told that lol 😂 but I really like her. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for sharing 💞
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching.
I have several pieces of the green depression glass sandwich pattern .Would you know how much it could be worth. Thank you for sharing this video.
I don’t always give values for glassware because they vary significantly. What I do is look at the sold comps on internet selling sites. There used to be price guide books but things have changed. Sorry I can’t help you. Thanks for watching.
I was pleased to see the Marigold pitcher. I have my grandmother's with all the glasses that match. You didn't say, but I believe the Moon and Stars was made by the L.E. Smith glass company of Mt Pleasant. Also, was the purple moon from Bryce Brothers
I didn’t say but thanks so much for the information. I’m certainly not an expert and I appreciate any feedback from my viewers. Thanks for watching
I was born and raised in Mt Pleasant, PA. Smith glass and Bryce Brothers hand blown glass were our main industry. Lenox crystal division took over the Bryce Brothers factory for many years before eventually closing the plant altogether. Smith also made some items hand blown, but I believe the Moon and Stars was perhaps their biggest seller. I have quite a few pieces from both factories.
I have a collection of the stars and moon. Love that beautiful red orange color.
love your video. I jusy found your channel My husband and I use to collect depression glass and different glasses and antiques.
I saw a lot of familiar items❤
Can you tell me the store and area you were in taping this video?
It was mainly in the 2 malls that I’m in. Maumee Antique Mall in Maumee Ohio and Plaza Antiques in Lincoln Park Michigan. There’s some shots possibly in blissfield antiques in Blissfield Michigan and a few others. They are mainly in the 2 Check out our 2 depression glass videos too. Thanks for watching.
I have a bunch of green Moon and stars that my mom had when I was growing up.
What a great collection to have. Thanks for watching.
Very informative. Thanks. I'll be back
Check out our depression glass videos too. Thanks for watching.
Very informative. Thank you
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for this video ! I just discovered I am a closet vintage glass lover! I didn’t even THINK about vintage glass before this. I am SO excited to learn more about this glassware. I just LOVE it! How do I learn more about this?(good reference books, etc.) Where do I go to find it? I am an absolute glassware virgin! Lol help me!
I use the books by Gene Florence. He wrote a lot of price guides for depression glass and collectible glass. I think he may have passed away but I did get to meet him years ago through the Michigan depression glass club I was in. There is also a book by weatherman on glassware. Sorry if I have the wrong name on the second book but I haven’t seen it in a while. Make sure you check out our other videos on depression glass and thanks for watching.
I have a lot of the classic pale green Depression glass and also the blue glasses with the ship--a whole collection. I didn't know it was Depression glass. This was highly informative. I've never seen most of these.
Subscribed.
I’m glad you gained some more information on your glass. We got more on depression glass coming but have been swamped by antique shows. Stay tuned. Thanks for watching.
I want to see old punch bowls. You are very informative..
Not easy to find but if I run across any I’ll include them in the upcoming videos. Thanks for watching.
Hi Lou, at about 1:38 into video, just after you talk about the green Capri, briefly on the right side there's a royal blue coloured glass dish/bowl on a bit of a pedestal. This type of glassware is never mentioned in your video but I actually have a bunch of these blue glass pieces. Even a glass basket in this style. Can you tell me the name of this glass, Era, etc? I would like to know what I own thanks so much. ❤ watching you from BC, Canada 😊
If I’m seeing the same thing as you, it is moon and stars which is made by various companies from the 30s to 2004. Thanks for watching from Canada 🇨🇦.
there are two types of Kings Crown, one in pink and one in red, Indiana Glass made the red as I collect the red
Good information to know. Thanks
Please tell me where is your booth???? Certainly would like to see it if possible. Loved your video most people have a difficult time identifying everything and also you have great video I can see clearly!!! Thank you!!
I’m at plaza antiques in Lincoln Park Michigan booth 144. Also I’m at Maumee Antique Mall in Maumee Ohio. I’m in row 7 and my dealer number is 144. (On tags). I have a depression glass video hopefully coming. Thanks for watching.
I have almost a hole set of the green florinteen 2 and I’m still adding to it.
How wonderful. Thanks for watching
New subscriber! Love glass items my favorite is blues and iridescent
I love blue too. Take a look at our depression glass videos if you get a chance. Thanks for your support.
So Fire King. Got it
Thanks for watching.
I found a jadeite platter marked McKee and it glows like uranium 😊
That’s really cool. I never knew that could light up like that. Thanks for sharing.
Is Fenton sometimes unmarked? I have a piece I believe is Fenton but there are no markings on the bottom
Yes it is sometimes unmarked. It definitely has a look to it so you are probably right. Thanks for watching.
I have a jadeite bowl, but shaped like the one with the tulips.
What a great item to have. Thanks for sharing. Check out our depression glass videos too.
Candlewick was made by imperial of Bellaire Ohio. I enjoyed your video !
Good information. Thanks for watching.
Hi. In front of the Jadite tea canister, what is the 2 small containers with small birds on them. They ate gorgeous.
I looked at the video and wasn’t able to identify those pieces but they look Victorian if I had to guess. Definitely beautiful 🤩.
I love this! I usually pick up pieces that I love and use in my home. I’m really not a collector. Lately I’m more drawn to the 60s -80s glassware. I love the heavy chunky pieces because they hold up to my type of living. Can you do a video with more of these items? Thanks!
I actually have a video on depression glass and one on elegant glass during the depression era. Check those out. Thanks so much for watching.
I liked that you identified the items but it would have been awesome if you had mentioned the values of the earlier years like the depression Era, 1900s -1950s
That would have been great but difficult to find out.
Hi Lou, I enjoyed your video! I would appreciate it if you would please tell your viewers the list price of the items and/or your thoughts on what the items are worth. Thank you.
I sometimes do that when I buy a load of stuff from a garage sale or flea market but glassware has changed so much in the last 10 years that it varies. I would suggest looking online for comps. That is what I do. But make sure they are sold ones.
@@junkingwithlou So true... prices vary greatly.
Wow! Love this video! By chance......do you remember the child's cup & saucer, clear glass Diana" set? It was on some type of roundish display stand? Am wondering what the price was on that entire set? Thanks!
I actually had that set and sold it for a round 30 dollars. It was definitely a deal but there was no interest for a couple of years. Unfortunately folks don’t always know their patterns. Thanks for watching.
