Pattern/pressed glass goblet identification
« on: January 27, 2013, 01:12:46 pm »
My mother-in-law had a collection of 82 pattern glass goblets.  Over the years, I have able to ID the patterns that weren't marked and sell them.  However, this one has me stumped.  I have searched through several pattern glass books and periodically google images without satisfaction.  I also brought it to a glass show where they offered appraisals.  All the gentleman could tell me was that it might be European.  Any help would be appreciated..origin, pattern, value etc.  Thanks in advance.

Looks like you have celery vases,, not goblets !!  Thats why you are not finding them !!  Try celery vases with medallions !!

Thanks Mart..did not find my pattern but was surprised to find that celery vases had straight sides.  For some reason I thought they were all fluted or wider at the top.  Bigwull, also searching Bohemian glass but more extensive and time consuming.  Thanks a bunch.

If I am seeing this correctly the sides are slanted and typically celery glasses/vases had straight sides to hold up the celery straight. Gobletsdrinkware was typically slanted.

However, spooners could have slanted sides - but very rarely.

What is the depth of the cup/holder? (Not the height of the overall piece.)

Celery Vases were typically 6 - 9" and Spooners were typically 4 - 6" unless they were footed.

Note How i put TYPICALLY....but here is proof they did have slanted occassionally...

KC !!  Look at that link I gave !!  Seems that they were all different shapes and both the celery vases and spooners were interchangeable !!

I thought possibly George Duncan because of the etched medallion but didn`t find one in his !!  May be European,, I can`t find it here !!

Duncan & Miller had a line called "Chanticleer". I'm going to Google images and see what comes up.
