Identifying Depression Glass Patterns

[@claudiahansen4938]

To me, this is the best video I've ever seen on depression glass. Thank you!

[@junkingwithlou]

You are welcome. Thanks for watching.

Lou, I am so excited! I am learning so much from you today! I wrote you another comment on another post earlier today about how my mom collected a few pieces of glass. She has this beautiful green serving plate with a harp-like handle. I've always loved it and now, thanks to you I know what it is. It is a Mayfair "Open Rose" sandwich server by Hocking Glass company. I am so excited! Mom passed away a few years ago. I sat in my room saying, "Mom, I know what it is now, I know what it is!" I know she would be very excited too. Thanks again.

I’m so excited for you that you have identified your mom’s glassware. This was one of the nicest comments I’ve ever had. It brought tears to my eyes Thanks so much for writing it and watching my channel.

My grandma would talk about her depression glass and I always thought it was called that because it was glass made during the depression. Thanks to you I now know better.

[@junkingwithlou]

Thanks for all of your positive comments 💕

[@kathywiseman7944]

Thank you. Some I've seen and some I hadn't but didn't try to learn the names of any.

[@junkingwithlou]

It’s hard to know the names but it gives you an idea of what depression glass looks like. Thanks.

I have a nice collection of American sweetheart, I think it’s just so beautiful!!!!!!

[@junkingwithlou]

My grandmother had that too. It is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@strawbearie_bunnies]

Thank u so much like my own personal cheat guide for the flea market 💕🤣🤣💕🤣

[@junkingwithlou]

Thanks so much for watching.

Wow, you showed patterns I've never encountered in all my wanderings. I'm totally amazed!---I inherited the cherry blossom bowl & charger in solid blue. I also inherited a few pieces of the clear iris & herringbone, which was more common in the Southwest. I'd never really seen the amber until I began watching shows from sites in the East.---These are fun. Do you have any more lined up for this year!

[@junkingwithlou]

We are doing an elegant depression glass one next week or week after. Boy there is a lot of patterns. We will have to continue doing these as we find new patterns. Thanks for watching.

[@alanatolstad4824]

@@junkingwithlou I kept thinking of the vendors who had collected those patterns for sale. How hard was it to make their collections, & then, how hard was it to make the decision to sell.

[@philipmawford9635]

You have some beautiful glass

[@junkingwithlou]

Thanks for watching.

Great video, thank you!

[@junkingwithlou]

You’re welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@lynnallen1315]

Those prizes are tantalizing. We don't see much DG in East Texas so I could happily spend a bundle if I came to Michigan. 😊

[@junkingwithlou]

That show definitely has unusual items all in one place. Thanks for watching.

[@lynnallen1315]

There used to be a newspaper called the Depression Glass Daze, put together by a lady whom I believe was a Michigander. Nearly all my glass was sourced through ads in the Daze. This is the most glass I've since since. And you are so well versed in your patterns and dates, watching this is a real treat!

[@junkingwithlou]

Thanks so much for your kind words.

[@kimberlyfinch6753]

I want to find the pink American sweetheart!

[@junkingwithlou]

Definitely

[@judithsharrar8706]

Interesting. What you call button and bows we called it daisy and button. Have you heard it by that name?

[@junkingwithlou]

Yes I’ve that name too. Thanks so much for watching.

[@claudiahansen4938]

Over the past forty years, I've been using and enjoying the set of Princess pink dishes given to me by a dear family friend in Pittsburgh, Mrs. Frank. When I moved out to San Diego, I then started buying the Fire King seafoam green pieces at swap meets, when they were inexpensive. Is Fire King considered depression glass?

[@junkingwithlou]

It depends on when it was made. I believe it is considered more collectible glassware because many of it was made in the 40s on up. Still wonderful and desirable. Thanks for watching.

[@claudiahansen4938]

@@junkingwithlou thank you! I use the green dishes daily.

[@lisalamp3537]

Would you be able to say the prices they are asking? I paused and zoomed in but video was too blurry

[@junkingwithlou]

If you referring to a tag on a specific item I can watch it on a bigger screen. Which pattern?

[@nanasloves]

I had no idea how many patterns there are! I’m just leaning, Are any of these uranium or Vaseline glass?

[@junkingwithlou]

Yes they are. It’s typically green or yellow and shines fluorescent under a black light. Thanks for watching.

[@deehead2023]

I would like to speak to you about some dishes I purchased that I think may be Vintage Fostoria Dishes Depression Glass. I watched two of your sessions and I think I do have something. Please let me know how I can confirm based your knowledge. Thank you

[@junkingwithlou]

You could send pictures through my Facebook business site. Thanks for watching.

[@dawnelder9046]

In the 60s you would get a free glass in a bag of puffs cereal.

[@junkingwithlou]

How cool was that. Thanks for watching.
