Unusual 'The Gem' Jar Hey everyone, I dig most of my glass but once in a while I will buy a piece if the price is right. I purchased this 'The Gem' jar as a Christmas gift to myself, not only because it is beautiful but also because I've never seen this style of lettering before. It has a...

Hello, I found this bottle at a yard sale a few days ago. Its 11 & 1/4 inches tall and is very heavy. i cannot find a makers mark anywhere on it. I'm not sure if the top would have had some type of cover or if could even be a vase? :dontknow:I have never seen anything like it before and was...

I need help getting pointed in the right direction. I found this stone in a creek behind my house the other day. I am not sure what it is. I have been suspecting green garnet but it's hard to tell. I need some opinions. Someone told me it was lave glass but I find that rather unlikely seeing is...

Vintage Demijohn's Hi, Can someone help with value/information on these glass demijohn's? They both measure about 18" in height. The brown one is about 14" wide.

New member here. I really like bottle digging but it's kind of a drag driving 1.5 hours just to go do it. Was wondering if anyone knows of any that are on land you can dig on in and around the capital region of NY. I'm in Saratoga county. Just send me a messege if you know. I'm willing to...

I'm very interested in Depression Glass, and I'm hoping to buy some items around my city (Richmond, VA) and sell them on Ebay or Etsy to make a little money. Anyway, I think (hope) I found some good pieces today. I bought about 35 items all together, and I used some books from the library to...

I've been trying to get into depression glass, and today I bought many pieces from a yard sale. I got a few guidebooks from the library, but I'm still having some troubling ID'ing some of the pieces. Help is appreciated!

My friend picked this box up at a sale just out of curiosity, thinking it would be easy to research but it hasn't been easy at all.. I've tried a few obvious searches but found nothing so far.. Sorry for the semi-bad cell phone pics.. I do not have the box in front of me at the moment but from...

I have had this around for awhile now. I thought it was really cool, but couldnt ever figure out what it was. I thought it was for a tea-candle, but not idea how to get one in there, or how to light it. I'm trying to post it on Ebay to see if I can get something for it. In the meantime, anyone...

Hello! I'm pretty new to TN and I found a stash of old glass in my woods. Some of it was still intact, some was not. It consisted of a variety of jars and bottles. It was easy cleaning the jars, I just rinsed off the dirt and threw it into a dish washer. However, the bottles are a little bit...

I was on a hike in my woods and following a small creek looking for cool rocks to take home. I spotted a glass bottle buried under the mud in the creek. I picked it up, brought it home, and now I am trying to figure out what it is and when it is from. On the bottom it says the following...

If you scrap CRT tv's, I want to give you $ for something you're throwing away Hey everyone, So if you scrap CRT TV's you probably know the electron gun inside the tube. I repurpose these little pieces of glass that are on the electron gun inside. Here's some pictures: The brown bars in...

I have this 8 oz, glass, coke bottle that appears to be vintage. The problem is that it has a expiration date from 2008 on it. I did research on 8 oz glass coke bottles from 2008, and could not find this kind. Can you can return used bottles to the manufacturer, and they refill them, or is this...

I returned to the field I had been hunting earlier in the week. For two days of hunting, I ended up with a variety of old coins and miscellaneous items. I believe I have located the site of a ghost town that disappeared in the 1870s due to the age of the coins. I found no Indians, wheats, or...

My 'find' is a wide glass bowl. It is about 13.5 inches wide, 2.5 inches tall. It is a dull cloudy sage green with other colored glass swirled through it. The outer portion of the bowl looks like it is coated with an off-white paint. The underneath shows the colored class better. No marks...
