Topic: Glass display, looking for inspiration.

Well now that the collection of carnival glass is growing im now needing to display it sooooooooo what do you display your glass in? Is it on a shelf or in a cabinet? Not sure as to what to purchase to display mine in so any tips/advice would be great, oh and any pictures of your display cabinets would be good as well ta  :thup:

Hi-Ho!!!

             I use the tall glass cabinets you often see in shops for my displays, they are sold by Ikea and cost about £30, I have seven of them dotted around the house and they look great when lit!!

                       Warmest Wishes,

I have two double illuminated display cabinets I got from Very.co.uk. They have toughened glass shelves and a mirrored back that shows off my glass from all angles.

They cost about £120 each.

I have two of Ikea´s Detolf cabinets too. Then there´s an old reed organ, which I modified
into a cabinet, another cabinet - both lit with UV tubes, different shelves, my writing desk,
my other writing desk, the window sills, small boards above the door cases, two smaller
desks, another shelf, any horizontal place that´s suitable and not cramped already and
finally some pieces of glass are lurking on the floor and wait for others to go....  :24:

And if you ditched the art work in the middle you could sit another shelf right across the gap supported by the two units...............about another 5 or 6 feet of display space! WOW! :thup:
