Title: Cut Crystal Wine Glass, Stumped
Post by: ironlord1963 on June 22, 2010, 10:14:31 PM: I have this Wonderful Cut Crystal Wine Glass, I picked up for believe it or not 3 bucks, Been trying to find some information but am having a bit of a hard time. It has a Amber tone Glass with very deep EAPG Style pattern or ACG pattern. (Pre Depression). Not sure it is old, after looking around a bit it is possible it is a very high end modern Wine glass. It has a hallmark that I have not been able to track. I need a good site that references Cut Crystal Hallmarks. The hallmark appears to be a Crown N, Then I started to look at maybe a V. I found a company that makes this style called Varga, wow they want 100.00 to 300.00 for one glass. I did find a varga logo but don't look like this, so my hope of a super elite crystal has been put on hold. I'm going back to search the N letter. Just thought I would see if anyone can help.

bug-eyed I totally missed it.

Post by: sapphire on June 23, 2010, 07:48:00 AM: O M G ! That shows you I was definitely tired . I focused in on the "crown/N" on the right and didn't even
glance at the others. Just got frustrated when the link underneath it took me nowhere. :D

Reminder to self.......don't hunt with your eyes half closed. :P

Post by: ironlord1963 on June 23, 2010, 11:49:25 AM: Yea When I bought it a the thrift store I was trilled, Figured at least 30 years old, but seems it is only a few years old. I did find several on Ebay in Blue, but non of these in Amber, or they call them copper. Looks like buy it now price is about 50.00, but no sales on that price. Now to decide if I start my opening price at 19.99, or 9.99 ??? Sinc I only paid 3 bucks I'm sure to win on this one at least. And Sapphire even when you are half asleep you still rock, Thanks again

Post by: KC on June 30, 2010, 09:18:25 AM: Just saw a program on this item last week. I erased it already from my recorder....darn. If it was the same manufacturer they were up to $80 each! Can't remember if it was Antique Roadshow or Flea Market Finds.

The glasses were older and you could tell the quality of glass. two color process and etching done through the outside layer to to reveal the inside color was superb.
