Pressed Champagne Flutes Any ideas?
« on: November 22, 2005, 04:02:17 PM »
Picked these up at an Age Concern shop the other day because they looked so nice on the completely set up table with crockery,utensils candles the works and then I thought I have never seen pressed glass champagne flutes before so I will try to do a little digging as to their origin, age etc. iI couldn't find out anything about them didn't even come close so, my glass friends, is there anyone there who can shed any light?

Grateful thanks as always as to even be bothered to look at my little queries.  I never seem to find any real treasures like some of the other glassies do.

Cheers!
Doris

Hi Doris,

Thank you!

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
