First Post-Fireking/Wedgwood

[jason4kstate]

Hey this is my first post on here. Went to a estate sale yesterday and picked up a few things. I was sorting through some misc mugs for .25 and spotted this Fireking mug right away. After that my wife met up with me and found a pair of gold plated sterling silver Wedgwood earrings for $3.00. I run across Wedgwood jewelry every once in awhile I have yet to come up with a consensus on whether or not these are valuable. I bought a pair of Wedgwood cufflinks and tie clip for $15 a few years ago and have yet to find any info on them. Any ideas or value on the earrings/Fireking mug would be appreciated. Thanks for looking!

Welcome! Keep posting...

You can move both of those on Feebay if interested in selling them.

I have a Wedgwood Pin to sell, may get $25, paid $5. You (rather the wife) did well on the earrings they appear to be more desirable pieces. $50 range? Your "cufflinks and tie clip" set even better.

The Fire King is alway popular in the jade. $10-$20 range?

Others may have better estimates.

Great finds ! If the mug is a "C" handle then it will go for 50 or more if its a "D" handle then @ 15-20 (these are Fleabay prices)

It's a C handle. I was pretty shocked to see it there and tried to find its friends but there wasn't anymore

Thanks for posting. I never knew about Fire King stuff, so something else to add to my knowledge base.

Nice find! I think that green glass is called jadite

Thats awesome! I especially like the pitcher. I found a set of azurite charm cups about 3 years that are still my favorite (although not the most valuable) find to date.

They look like these if your curious:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fire-King-A...ultDomain_0&hash=item3371ea73bf#ht_500wt_1287

Nice collection of jadeite "Diggum". Do you also collect vaseline glass?

Thanks, I don't collect vaseline but I do buy it when I can find it as I buy many different things. Anything I can resell for profit. From ephemers to glass to toys to jewelry and everything in between.

I run across the blue every now and then and your right, it's not as popular as the jadeite for some reason, even though it's harder to find. Go figure. I have a lady that buys most of my vintage glass and resells on her website here-
http://www.cheshirecatantiques.com/ for a premium. She's got a great following, so she can pay me pretty well and still make a handsome profit for herself.

Cool! Does she buy locally or from anyone?

Does anyone else know of a place online that buys pottery, china, glass, etc? I come across this stuff a lot.

Thanks!

No, she's a local down here.
