Vintage Mercury Glass Swans and Storks {I think}.
Made in Germany.
Not as fragile as they look. I have knocked them around a bit over the years.
Estate Sale finds...
Bought over the years in twos and threes. Now there are 10. The biggest is one of my most recent purchases. All a dollar or two each.
Some of them have holes where real feathers once were. Long gone when I found them.
Those are beautiful...
ReplyDeleteI love all old things...
Vintage Christmas, especially.
Merry Christmas,

More beautiful vintage treasures. I'm becoming a fan of mercury glass. I've picked up several ornaments in MG this year and attended a dinner party this week where the center piece was done in Mercury Glass. At each place setting was a small Mercury Glass vase filled with red carnations studded with "diamonds". Such a stunning table!
ReplyDeleteOh Joan!! These are lovely pieces. Of course I am really partial to Mercury Glass. Have a wonderful Christmas...julie

ReplyDeleteLOVE those birds!! I won't be posting for Monday as I am taking a short break for the holidays. Will try to get around and visit the sites and actually say "hi" ... something I just haven't had time to do lately. I figured with my birthday and Christmas just around the corner ... and Friday was my 100th post & giveaway it's okay ... right?
