A cache of green glass. All but the round, footed bowl have gold flashed highlights. Any idea how old these are? Any other info? Thanks.

A pair of small goblets, 3.75" tall with fancy patterned stems.

An oblong bowl (7" x 5") with a nice pressed pattern, the top edges only are gold highlighted and is a very light, mint-colored green - not the deep emerald green seen n most vintage glass pieces. Is this EAPG and what is the pattern?

My mom referred to this as a "hair receiver" when people would clean out their combs and brushes after grooming and put the loose hair in these containers. Why anyone would want to save hair combings is a mystery to me, but this piece is embossed "Made in Belgium" on the bottom and is quite heavy for its size (3.5" tall at lid knob).

This small, footed bowl is 4.5" diameter and resembles the "Columbia" depression pattern, but that wasn't made in emerald green.

German lead crystal doesn't sell for a great deal. However it seems that you have a nice sized piece there. I would think $38 - $48 would be a fair asking price. That is what I would price it at for my antique mall booth. Hope that helps! :)

This leaded crystal basket is from West Germany (when there was one). It's 10" tall at the handle, 8.5" long and 6" wide and has a bird & leaf pattern cut into it. A woman at my Bible study want's to buy it, but I have no idea what to ask for it without cheating either her or myself. What would be a fair price? The photos don't do it justice - it is actually quite breathtaking when seen in natural light.

I am trying to get any opinion as to who and what time period these were made. They stand about 12 inches tall. Glass colors include red blue green and clear. They are also hand painted. One is slightly bigger then the other. My feeling is that they are crystal as they have a little ping to them. I would call it art glass and they look to be from the 20's or 30's. What do you think? Thank you for any help. Al Minneosta

No way,don't breakup a set.  Just because it's called a berry set, doesn't mean you can only serve berries. How about chips in the big bowl, dip in the diamond, indiv. bowls.  Or, Ice cream,nuts,choc sauce, candies, bananas, whipped cream...need more bowls!  I think, due to its' rarity and completeness it would be worth $100. at a tag sale. Make sure it's advertised.

Thanks for that guidance, vicki.

Well, it's beautiful. I think I would put the berry set seperate from the diamond candy bowl. Maybe $40 for the Berry set and $10-$15 for the diamond? And, be sure to advertise "rare" EAPG glass.

The thing is you can always go down in price, but you can't go up. I always price for estate sales at about half of retail value, I then expect to get half of that price. It seems to work.

I have a Hobstar and Feather berry set - 6 small bowls, a larger serving bowl and a diamond-shaped bowl. I plan on putting these out fro my next garage sale. I saw on this web site that this set is worth over $200.

I know I can't get that price at a garage sale venue. What would be a reasonable price to ask?
