    Well we've all heard about these and some of us have had them....and I shall just wait a few days for the guy to reply before I hit back, but a very nice empty box arrived a little while ago from America with what should have been a nice piece of Nailsea inside, but as the box was A. way too...

    What has happened to the early glass posts?

    I know I've been away for a few months, but I had a huge suprise when I came back and found significantly fewer posts generally on this forum and equally very few for earlyglass/pontils etc. Is the forum suffering from the facebook forums? www.earlyglass.com

    Earlyglass, freeblown but not pontilled....

    I've picked up a couple of these bottles erecently, which I've always thought under rated. They are German/Belgian spa water bottles, thes ebulbous ones from aroud 1750 onwards, always quite crude and swirly, usually with a rouletted crudely applied string rim below a snapped off lip, and not...

    These cases need investigating!!!

    The most recent delivery from my postamn, some cases I need to look into....[;)] I've always liked these squat early case bottles with and without seals. This one brilliant A1 condition with a "blank" seal... This one equally as brilliant condition as you could want, sealed with the...

    Hope this is suitably Hostoric?...

    This is I think the last sealed octagonal to pass through my hands last year, and still one of my favourites, love it's iridescence, and the provenance is perfect! earlyglass

    A RARE ENGLISH BOOT!!!

    Got this one off ebay a few weeks back, and indeed it travelled back over the big pond to it's homeland. At first sight it looks like an aqua version of the classic German "Boot" bottle, those slightly weird rugby ball (or even American football)...or for Family Guy fans "Stewie face-shaped"...

    two more nice earlyish utilities today

    Picked up these two superb example English utilities today, the snuff is excellent and very short with a big lip, but my favorite form is the square widemouth with an even bigger lip. Haven't had one of these or even really seen the type before. The square one certainly going in...

    A shaft and globe learns self respect

    I posted this little ditty and pics on one of the UK forums some months ago, and thought you guys might like to see it... (get yourself a cup of coffee first! - you'll get used to my posts, sorry!) Once upon a time (in around 1670) there was a little shaft and globe bottle, a nice strong...

    some recent earlyglass

    (Hope this is the right place to put these guys? As a relative newbie to this forum I'll probably break all sorts of rules and conventions, until people put me right!) Here's a pair I've just recently made up with the later addition. Aqua halfsize onions, on the right a just pre1700, which...

    Dated mallet to arrive in the post...

    ...been waiting for this with tenterhooks for a few days now. Will the sender pack it well?, am I being scammed?, will it get waylaid?, will it rattle when it arrives?.....(groan), will it, almost 100% likely have various stars or minute hairlines that even the most honest but unknowledgable...
