German Glass?
« on: November 10, 2015, 01:05:19 PM »
My family has some old glassware that we believe came from Germany in the 18th century.  The family story states that it was in a chest (which we still have in the family) when my ancestors immigrated to the United States in the mid 1700's.

If there is any way in which you could help us identify this glassware, or any information that you might have on how we can identify it, please let me know - I would really appreciate it.  We are considering donating this glassware and the chest to an area historical society museum in the town which was established by my ancestors in Pennsylvania.

I plan on taking some additional photos in the next month or so, but for now, this is what I have.  If you need a photo which you can scale, please let me know and I will email the original.

Thanks,
Corey
