Two green reamers. I use these any time I need fresh orange or lemon juice.
The little sherbet footed dishes are"Block Optic" by Hocking. I have a whole bunch of those and like to serve a scoop of icecream or berry cobbler in them.
The large plate is "Patrician" (also known as "Spoke") by Federal Glass Co. It was the very first piece of green glass that I bought. Both of these patterns were made in the 1930's.
I took pics of some of the pieces in the window so it is easier to see the design.
My Mom gave me this lovely 3-footed bowl for Christmas a few years ago. I have it out on display year round. Sometimes it is filled with christmas ornaments, or potpourri, or vintage postcards. I just think it is so beautiful!
Look at the detail in the daisy pattern! Does anyone know what this one is called?
Update: this pattern is called "Pearl Flowers".
Footed "Sunflower" cake plate, unknown manufacturer. I always make round layer cakes for family birthdays and this is one of my favorite cake stands to use.
The Indiana Glass leaf nappies are vaseline and they glow in the dark. The pattern is called "Twiggy". I have several of these and they are perfect for serving small salads or fresh fruit.
"Paneled Thistle" was made by Higbee. Two of the panels show thistle flowers and two show a starburst pattern. It is also vaseline. I love the opalescent edges on this spooner.
This apothecary bottle is such a beautiful deep green. It was made in Belgium.
These green Morgantown "Crinkle" dessert plates are still at my Mom's, but I hope they will be mine one of these days. They have matching goblets and and bowls. Our family used them every year at Christmas when I was a teen. I believe they were made from the 1940's- through the 1960's, in many different colors. Seneca made a similar pattern called "Driftwood", but those are slightly different.
I hope you will share pictures of your green glassware too! I'd love to see them!

You really have a great collection of vintage greens. All of the pieces are very nice. I am not familiar with it, but I love the cake stand.
ReplyDeleteYou have a nice collection. I don't collect glass, but if I did, it would be green.
ReplyDeleteGreen is such a luscious color for glass. You've got some gorgeous pieces. Unfortunately, I can't help you with your question about the pattern.
ReplyDeleteooooh they are all so lovely! Your collection could make some collectors Green with envy!!!! :-)
ReplyDeletePeople will never be at a loss as to what they could give you on a birthday or Christmas or mother's day or Valentines.....oh my!
Beautiful. thanks for sharing some of your favorite things...
Great photos! The window shots truly show how beautiful the patterns can be.

Very very pretty - I love colored glass of all kinds.
ReplyDeleteI have several of those cake plates - they were often given away at afternoon movies, to get the ladies to come out to the movie. And sometimes they were given with cake flower. I have a pink, green and yellow one and love them all.
Your green glassware is so pretty...and such a great variety! I love the plate displayed in the window!!! So pretty. Have a great VTT!
ReplyDeleteI especially like the footed sunflower plate-I have a green glass citrus juicer that was my Mum's, love green glassware.
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking collection! Great depression glass. The vaseline one is my fave!
ReplyDelete:)
Gorgeous! Some of your pieces are just breathtakingly beautiful! The Patrician platter is exquisite!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this wonderful collection with us.
What a lovely collection!!! I love that you use it, especially the cake plate for family birthday's! How did you get started?
ReplyDeleteI have a few pieces of the green. I would love to have a collection like yours.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite color too!
You know, I don't have a single piece of green glass. It is so pretty and 'fresh' looking. The three-footed bowl from your mum is very pretty and I'd keep it out all year too!
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful collection of vintage glass. Thanks for sharing these lovilies with us. ~~sherry~~
ReplyDeleteYour green glass is simply beautiful. Thanks bunches for visiting me: )

So pretty. My favorites are the cake plates. I've often seen similar ones at antique stores, but haven't splurged. Very nice collection.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! My MIL wants green wine glasses. I've been on a hunt for them. I had found them some, not antique, but a dark green. She said that was fine. Didn't buy them and now kicking myself! Love your collection thoough!!!
ReplyDeleteWow...your collection is amazingly beautiful! My dream is to have a kitchen filled with either green glass or blue! Hugs for a great day. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful glass. I love getting to see the deep dark richness of the green. I love that it is something you use and not just to look at.
ReplyDeleteI love green glass! I have one little sherbert dish that I love! I have never seen a green reamer...would love to find one of those! Enjoy your day! ♥
ReplyDeleteI love glass and your green glass is just gorgeous! So many pretty patterns. Thank you for sharing your beautiful collection.
ReplyDeleteGosh, they are all so pretty... You have a lovely collection of green glassware.

I love the green glass! Beautiful pieces.
ReplyDeleteHow absolutely wonderful your green glass collection is! Thank you for sharing it. I was especially happy to see the large green reamer that is like my grandmother's. My young daughter uses it every day to squeeze fresh grapefruit juice. I love that dishes hold such sweet memories. Have a lovely weekend! Elizabeth
ReplyDeleteThese are just lovely, I love how you showed them as usual then against the window. The patterns are so pretty! I'm so sorry I haven't been by in a while. Having two kids with special needs means I'm pretty much their playmate all summer. We're packing in as much as possible before school starts Monday. I'll be so glad not to hear "I'm bored" for awhile!
ReplyDeleteJust thought I'd stop by and answer your question. I teach preschool, there are 10 three year olds in my class. It is a lot of fun, at least most of the time. ;-)
ReplyDeleteLove those juicers! I have one of my Grandma's that she got from her mom.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your post on my blog. It really is hard losing a pet, but I'm doing the best I can and I'll make it. It's just tough.
Thanks for your nice words.
Come back! :)
I am green with envy. ;) Oh my, my color is blue but really I am a sucker for any colored glass. I use my green juicer ALL the time. I make homemade lemon salad dressing with it.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAn incredible collection, these pieces are just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love the dressing and it is soooo easy. My favorite way to have it is on arugula, a thin slices of red onion and long slices of Parmesan cheese. MMMmmm Good!
ReplyDelete2T Fresh lemon juice
1/3 c extra vigin olive oil
Sea Salt & Pepper to taste
I have gotten lazy and use the juice of one whole lemon which usually comes to the vinegar line on those bottles used to make the Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix Packets. Then I skip the water, add oil but add less than the line indicates for oil since there is no water added. Grind in the salt & pepper. Shake. It stores well but will solidify in the fridge and needs to warm up before using again. This makes more than the recipe version above.
love the green glass. so, so pretty!
ReplyDeletehave a lovely weekend

What lovely glass. The green color just looks soothing to look at.
ReplyDeleteAll of it is gorgeous, but when you photographed that footed bowl in the window, it took my breath. So stunning! You did such a great job of photographing these treasures. I think it is so difficult to photograph the pattern on glass. laurie
ReplyDeletethe most beautiful collection of
ReplyDeletegreen i've ever seen!
Adore green glass. I have several pieces the same as yours, the footed sherbet dishes and the daisy cake plate.
ReplyDeleteOMGosh! I love your green glass collection - it is phenomenal. Every piece is so beautiful. I love how you photographed them up to the light to show the pretty patterns each has. The little Belgian bottle is so green it's mesmerizing. And the Vaseline glass? Ah! Oh yes, the Crinkle glasses and plates are so cool. I think I've seen some similar glasses in Amber color. Wonder if they're the same company?
ReplyDeleteI do have a green glass collection, but none as valuable as yours (at least none that I know of ;)
Wonderful!
I have very few green glass pieces, but yours are lovely.
ReplyDeleteSetting them in the window was a great idea. It really shows the details.
Lovely post!
Hi,I've just found your blog and like you, I love vintage green depression glass.

Please come over and visit soon..xx
Love your collection. I love green glass too. And pink glass.

ReplyDeleteYour mother knows the pattern name of the green opalescent glass bowl. It is called "Pearl Flowers", maker unknown.
