Title: glass pic
Post by: shakesgirl on September 06, 2014, 12:44:32 PM
Has any one heard of the chalice? I looked it up, found a few but the one I have belonged to a café. It had pictures but not mine. Its heavy old wood and heavy glass. No name any where else. except whats on the glass. Maybe they redecorated years back and tossed things, I don't know  thank you   Then again maybe it didn't come from a café. Still looking... I just contacted the only chalice I figured it would be. Spoke to the owner, he said he bought it in 79 and it was built in 77. Said he dosent remember a pic like that but wanted me to send a pic.  Guess i'll keep trying.  They were in WI.

"may your cup runneth over".
Its gold trim around it. I weighed it, almost 10 pounds. The front is beveled glass,the back is just glass.  I don't know maybe im going down the wrong path.  Still trying.

 Just found another one called the coffee rocket located in Pa. I emailed them . Im just curious where it originated from and if its as old as I think,just by the wood.Im still thinking someone remodeled years back maybe and got rid of it. Who knows. Maybe always a mystery  lol ???  By the way I found that one by typing in may your cup runneth over on bing. And that came up.

I suspect the piece itself is old but the painting/handiwork might not be.  The wording "may your cup runneth over" just sounds like it came within the past 25, or less, years.

  Guess i'll just find a room to hang it in. I even checked facebook. Surely it didn't belong in a church once. Who knows. Thanks for helping.
