Featured Vaseline glass champagne flutes

Got 14 of these for 25 cents each. Been looking through my books, but no sign of them yet. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 

Champagne flutes or parfait glasses?

 

WHERE??!!

 

Well, if you want to call them parfait glasses, I have no argument with that. I use the two interchangibly sometimes. As to where I got them, it was at an estate sale here in Iowa. There were a few that had bites in them, and I put them aside. I told the sale runner what I was doing, and I got the good ones for 25 cents each, and got an extra 5 of them plus 6 sherbets for the price of putting them in my box. I have known the estate sale organizer for quite a few years and he always treats me well. I'm guessing these may be Tiffin, but can't tell for sure. All I know is there are worth more than 2 bits apiece I am sure.

 

They probably are parfaits, at the time these were made saucer champagnes were the shape being made. But I sell a lot of old water glasses as wine glasses and I would have no problem selling these as champagne flutes

 

And I would have no problem drinking champagne out of them either.

 

I would check out Tiffin glass as a possibility.

 

Funny -- They remind me a bit of the ones that @aaroncab posted the other day! Different shape, but some of the rest looks similar. I know you commented on that thread so you've seen it.

Tiffin looks like a good bet. These are very similar to this:

Utility Glass Works made several lines using this very narrow panel optic design. Here's one example (no name) from chataboutdg (not a very good photo; but look closely to make out the narrow panel optic motif):

here's an old eBay listing of sherbets/champagnes:

BTW, if you sell them on ebay, don't use the global shipping program. They have decided uranium and vaseline glass is dangerous and will not forward it - and you don't get it back.

What arrant nonsense!
Even if you wore a 32 piece uranium glass dinner set around your neck for thirty years, you wouldn’t set of a gieger counter!

 

Just one more reason to never use that stupid ass program ebay dreamed up!!!

Soon they are going to tell us we can no longer use the word uranium in our titles & descriptions because we might be selling actual uranium to some nut job.

 

UGW looks possible alright. Thanks for the info. If they go on ebay its going to be USA only. Think they will probably go to my annual garage/tag sale in September though.

 

Sounds like a good sale with interesting things!

 

Lots of glassware, oil lamps and brown furniture. Old books too.

 

That goes without saying
