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.

may be Bohemian....possibl y ..Moser...or if you are really lucky Loetz
-
Looks like you have celery vases,, not goblets !! Thats why you are not finding them !! Try celery vases with medallions !!
-
Thanks for both suggestions..I will begin searching on both of them

Try here !!

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.
-
They were many different shapes !!
-
I am bumping this up so can get more opinions here !!
-
Another bump !! Hope Wendy sees this !!

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 !!
-
The L G Wright company made pieces with faces on them!
-
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.
-
Not it.
-
This is a tough one !!
-
Replacements.com might know.
-
Were these possibly promotional items in detergent from the 50's to 60's time period? Just something about them doesn't sit well. You don't normally see people, cats, etc in a set.
-
Some of the same shape were but I think these were way too heavy for that and too well made !! They would not have gone to that much trouble to etch the faces for a give away !!
-
Are these the only ones like this? If not, can we see pics of the others please?
-
I didn't have time to read through the entire thread but if no one provided this here is a link to the EAPGS.ORG Pattern ID Service. If they can't help I don't no who else could

Couldn`t look through all of these but looking at the length of stem on the goblets here and the one in question,, it pretty much has to be a celery vase or spooner !! Still need to know size !!
-
Thanks for all of the interest. I am a bit behind because my internet has been down...but now back in business. I submitted it to the link for pattern ID today and will keep you posted.
The bowl is four and 3/4 inches deep and yes, I think it is too heavy to be a box enclosure; it weighs 1.15 pounds. I don't have any others that are remotely like it. I have sold most of them but definitely know there weren't any similar. I am attaching a better photo of the entire glass if that might help.
-
But you have several different faces,, don`t you including the cat ?? How many do you have total like this ??
-
No, this is the only one. It has a cat face on one side and a people face on the other side. Sorry if the pics were confusing....it is one goblet/vase with two different raised subjects.
-
How did you sell them if you didn't know what they were? Did you sell them on ebay? How much did you get if you don't mind me asking?
