The Crystal Closet



Featuring Crystal, Depression Glass, Brass, and Other Household Items


This is the Elegant Glass Shelf. On this shelf you will find pieces produced by some of the same companies that produced 'Depression Glass'. 'Elegant glass' is a term that refers to the better-quality glass made around the same time. Some of the companies that made this type of glass are Fenton, Fostoria, Cambridge, Heisey, and Westmoreland. You may find many of the familiar patterns and pieces, and perhaps one or two that are unusual here.

I would like to share some of the lovely items I have come across with you. If you are looking for a piece like Grandma had, or just like to collect certain styles, or patterns, you may find them here.

Most of the items we sell are older pieces. We describe them to the best of our ability, but keep in mind that these are old 'used' items. They may have natural flaws such as air bubbles, straw marks, scratches, and/or wear from normal household use, etc.

Please note that all the information provided here is accurate to the best of my knowledge. However, I'm only human, and I can make mistakes. As I learn more about the origins and history of a piece in my collection, I will update the info provided here.

There are well over two thousand items in my collection, most of which are available for you to buy. Only a small portion of this huge collection is represented here, and we are constantly adding new items. So look over the items on this shelf, and if you see something you like, you can purchase it. If you don't see exactly what you're looking for, email me to ask about it, what you're looking for might just be tucked away in a corner of my closet.

You can pay for an item by Visa or MasterCard using PayPal.com. It's free to use and you will find a 'buy-now' button on each page. If you prefer to pay by check or money order, you can do that right from the page too.

Thank you for visiting my Website, and whatever you do, enjoy your day!
