Stephen, I apologize for not giving you the credit for
the gun rack style flask stand. Thanks to Sandchip who
pointed out I made a mistake. I want to thank you for your
very good idea that helped me come up with the flask stand.
Once again I apologize for my foolish and embarrassing mistake...
Thanks to the Sandchips gun rack style flask holder idea and Dansalata plate stand turned bottle holder idea, I can up with a stand for flask with ovoid and teardrop shapes that will not stand up on there own. I just combined the two ideas and the
result worked just fine. Greg
Hello Folks,
I’m looking for ideas for different types of stands the would hold tear drop shaped flask in the upright position while maintaining good stability. I have been brain storming and coming up with different designs, but I thought I would see if anybody has a design that works better...
I have a group of three bottles and one milk glass container for sale. I would like to sell them together. I feel the bottles are from around the turn of the century and the milk glass container, I am not
sure about. The large blue and small amber bottle looks to be a early ABM with the seam...
Here's a flask I just picked up. I think it is English but
I am not sure. I'm trying to dig up information in my books, but I have not been to successful so far. Greg
I thought I would post a Continental bottle that I added to my
collection. It's European 18th century. It is a ribbed pinch
bottle made in the German half post method.
I thought I post a few photos of a tear drop pocket flask
I just added to my collection. The type of glass is
Chalcedony glass. It came from a early collection, you
can see the old collection sticker on the neck. Chalcedony
glass was developed by the early Venetian glass blowers.
There was...
I thought I share a photo of a very early Spanish blown and
cut pitcher that I just added to my collection. I really enjoy
all types of early glass. The styles and forms of European and Mediterranean glass enables you to see how our early glass industry
became influenced.
I had these old pictures on my computer of some of my
bottles and glass. The pictures are not that good. One of these
days I'm going to take a few good group shots.
There is some nice bottles that are not in these old photos.
I need to set up a good display instead of keeping most
of the...
I like early blown glass and try to incorporate it into my bottle
and flask collection. This is a circa 1750/60 English Jelly Glass
I bought at the show. I have European bottles along with my
American bottles and I enjoy blown glass from all areas.

I have had this bottle for several years now. The gentleman I
got it from found it in an attic with a few others in Philadelphia.
The only thing I know about it is, the glass is very thin, its 8 sided,
it has a hinge mold and is pontiled. Without labels or embossing
the contents are only...
I have had this treaded blown bowl for a long time now and
I have never been able to make any conclusions about it.
I guessed old and I've guessed new. My thoughts have been
American, European, Continental. I have looked at it as being 20th century art glass or just a plain reproduction of...
I'm putting identification stickers with a little information on the base of my flask. I keep trying to find information on this G1-121
Columbia Eagle flask. My McKearins book states glass works
of manufacture unknown. There is also the letters B&W on the
back of the flask. Does anybody have...
Hi folks,
I could use a little help here. This is a little scent bottle
that I'm trying to find some info on. As you can see
it is shaped like a lyre or scroll. It is mold blown and around
2 1/2" long. If any one has seen one before please let me know.
Thanks, Greg

I found this a while back in an old dumping area from the 1800's.
I have no clue as to what it was used for. Has anybody
ever seen one before or know what it is?
Thanks, Greg
