Rosalene is a heat sensitive opaque glass which turns from white to a beautiful rich pink color when cooled and reheated during the manufacturing process. (You will most often see the darker pink color on the edges of the glass.) This color was developed by Charles Goe over 30 years ago and resembles Northwood’s Pink Slag color of the early 1900’s. The decoration on this years Honor Collection is a deep mauve stylized floral motif, and the flowers are framed by heart-shaped leaves and accented by berries |

Sunset Stretch and
Sunset Overlay As a lot of us know, glass doesn’t always
photograph with a true color representation. When I first
looked at this color in the catalog, I wasn’t sure if I
liked it. I guess I wasn’t alone based on comments from
some of our customers. Well here’s what I know after I’ve
seen it. It is really pretty and will go well with today’s
decorating colors. However, there is quite a variance in
color hues. Dreamy Violets This is another grouping that is
much prettier than the catalog photos. The
background for "Dreamy Violets" is
white satin glass with pink blush around the
edge of each piece. The design is delicate
violets in shades of lavender, pink and purple
with green leaves and a blush of yellow. It’s
on page 26 in the catalog and comes in 11
different pieces, including 3 styles of lamps.
It is really pretty and very feminine. Spring
Special! John Saffell has designed a new flute and panel perfume bottle (7 3/4" including stopper) for this year’s Spring Special. Each perfume has a single delicate flower painted on one side. The perfume and coordinating ring holder are available in Pink Chiffon, Blue Topaz and Violet. - The perfect gift for Mother’s Day or Easter! |

Soon We made a decision a few months ago to try and find more quality products that are made in the USA. As we all know, Fenton Art Glass is made in W.V. and Heritage Lace is made in Pella, Iowa. We also carry some Mosser Glass which is made in Ohio and Vera Bradley is our latest addition. They make fabric totes, handbags, and accessories in very distinctive patterns. If you would like a brochure, please call and we would be happy to send one out. |
