Featured You guys asked for it, so here it is: My Depression Glass collection!

Hello!

I was rather happy with yesterday's warm welcome, so today I bring you my depression glass collection! All the pink is new from an estate sale earlier today, the rest has been gathered from various sources! I will have a list of what I paid for each piece at the end! Hope you enjoy!



WHAT I PAID!

Uranium Glass Pear Candy bowl by Indiana Glass Co - 2$
Green tray - 5$
Gold cups - 1$ ea
Vegie bowl - 5$
Ribbed bowl - 4$
Tray and perfume bottles - 20$

NONE OF THIS IS FOR SALE AT THIS TIME!

 

I think I paid pretty decent prices for these, don't you?

 

Thank you!

 

Looks like you're well on your way. The prices sound good to me.

 

beautiful color on the green tray.........
and the set is lovely as well....!
a good start !!!

 

If I am seeing your photo correctly, the "gold cups" are creamers. I LOVE the pink tray with perfumes

 

It is likely a good time to be building a collection of depression glass since prices are sooo incredibly low currently.

 

Ah, thank you for ID! Didn't notice I improperly ID'd them!

 

Well, the prices in store are low currently, but it appears the eBay market is strong as ever! Those glass dab perfume bottles were going for 50$ a piece on eBay! I was certainly pleasantly surprised by that!

 

The main thing is to LOVE your collection . And you seem to, so collect on.

 

Try some estate auctions. You see depression glass at them all the time selling for really attractive prices sometimes in big lots. I am a collector with limited storage space but even I haven't been able to resist purchasing a few lots of depression glass.

 

very nice collection and great prices Doot Boi

 

Ignore GOING FOR
only look at SOLD FOR.....
to get the real picture !

 

i.e. not much! I'm glad someone else appreciates it. Finally! Uranium glass finds a home, STEM kids geek out on it, but the other pieces have been dying on the vine. So now is a really good time to be buying.

 

Very nice collection. I have a large collection of depression glass in blue with some jadite. Enjoy.

 

Would love to, but estate auctions have been up out of online recently. I refuse to do estate auctions online though, since the audience is so large, and my chances of winning are cut down so drastically. (Add the fact I cant hold or see the item directly in front of me, so there's a sense of uncertainty to be added too. Estate sales seem to be my only outlet atm.

 

They're all on line here too. I've bid on a few things but they always go too high.

 

Yeah, cant blame them for wanting to minimize superspreader events tho.

 

Too true, but it's too bad things aren't sold the way they are at estate sales - fixed price with possible negotiation.
