Message:: [QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 9418183, member: 308"]Sixteen is an unusual amount of glasses. My first thought is the color is more modern. I'm used to seeing sets in lighter colors rather like the ruby one you found and also assorted colors rather than just one. The darker pieces seem to show up later and I suspect they are imports from Eastern Europe in the late 20th century. Why the seller chose moss rose as the flower is beyond me as it's a term normally used to identify china. I would expect fuschias to drop rather than run sideways but it's certainly closer than moss rose. Just calling it a floral pattern would probably be good enough. Anyway, if you can see the sold price for the stem you found I think I would try that as a starting point for your stems. I don't think I would sell it all as one set. Most likely I'd try and sell the decanter and eight and then the other eight separately. Pricing is always tricky (sometimes even with comps) but I think I'd price them at roughly $20 a stem and hope for the best with the understanding that I may need to lower the price. And your local market conditions may support a higher price. You know those conditions better than I do. These are just my opinions. Good luck.[/QUOTE]
