My Glass Shelf

… a blog for depression glass and elegant glassware collectors

glassing in Cookstown

We took a drive out to the Cookstown Antique Market today. Lots of depression glass in The Barn.

My bargain purchase?  Cameo, “Ballerina” (“Dancing Girl”) compote for $5.00!  Cameo Ballerina was manufactured by the Hocking Glass Company from 1930-1934 in green, yellow, pink and crystal with a platinum ring.  It is one of the most popular and sought-after depression glass patterns.  

Can you see the dancing ballerina? Pretty, eh?

Cameo,

Alas, I had to pass on a few tumblers that I’m sure were slightly overpriced…  they’re in my wish list.
