Vintage Summit Art Glass 5" Melanie Southern and 19 similar items

The Old Farmhouse Vintage Antiques Antique, Vintage Modern For Every Level of Bidder Buyer Treat yourself?you deserve it! Beautiful Melanie Southern Belle figurine by Summit Art Glass. Bell is in excellent condition, has great color and no wear or damage. Measures 5" and is 2.75" in diameter at the base. I don't know the exact pattern name or if it even has one, but the color is sort of a burnt toffee with cream highlights. History: Originally, a Cambridge mold. Imperial Glass purchased Cambridge and then Summit purchased many molds from Imperial. To name the piece, Summit ran a contest and the name Melanie was selected as the winner. The bottom hem on the back side is marked with Summit's "V" in a circle and also "S.B." which some sources say are the the initials of the winner of the naming, while others say the initials stand for "Southern Belle". The molds were completely destroyed in 1982. Please keep in mind that on all items where free and discounted shipping is offered, the shipping carrier is OUR CHOICE. We DO combine shipping on multiple orders where possible. Any extra shipping costs will be returned via immediate refund when the order is processed. We DO NOT AND WILL NEVER use AI to enhance photos or descriptions! About Us Assurances and Item Condition First and foremost, we will not sell you junk. All of our items have been carefully examined for damage and/or tested for functionality. We will specify if an item is untested, has minor damage beyond normal use and/or age wear, or is for parts only. Please read the description and view the photos carefully before buying or bidding. We try our very best to give a complete, clear and accurate description of all items listed. However, we may miss something that is important to you. Please do not hesitate to message us should you have any questions, concerns or require more detailed photos. If you spot an error, let us know, and we will correct the listing ASAP. All item conditions are based on our judgement, comparison research, and common sense. We will never claim any item we sell comes from a smoke-free home because, honestly, we do not know. However, every single item that we list is thoroughly cleaned before photographing and again before shipping, so that you will receive your purchase in the cleanest and best condition possible. Deals and Best Offers Our ?BEST OFFER? feature is turned off by default in order to discourage lowball offers. However, almost all of our listings are open to negotiation, even if there is no ?best offer? option, so please do not hesitate to message us if you are interested. We almost never refuse reasonable offers. Just to clarify, reasonable IS NOT 50% or more off the listed price! We are also willing to split larger quantities into smaller groups of 2, 4, 6, etc. if you wish. HOWEVER, please be aware that prices will be slightly higher per item because we will have to spend time and effort retaking photos and relisting reduced sets. We will not break a set into singles or odd numbers unless the set you are looking at already has an odd number of pieces. Photography We only use pictures we take ourselves and never use stock photos, unless something is brand new in the box and a stock photo would give you a better idea of what it looks like. What you see is exactly what we ship to you. Please keep in mind that just like human eyes, no two computer screens are exactly alike. We try our best to take photos that are as close to natural vision as possible, but colors may look slightly different in real life than they would ons your computer, or on your computer vs your cell phone. That said, we do not enhance photos other than to brighten or darken the background if necessary. Shipping We will ALWAYS ship same or next business day and every item we ship is 100% insured for the full value of the item. We WILL NOT be held responsible for damage done during shipping by the carrier, or items stolen in transit or after delivery. That is what insurance is for. Because you will already have the package in your possession, it is far cheaper and easier for you to present it to your local carrier and file a claim than it would be for you to pay to ship it back and us do it. We will be more than happy to assist you with claim information. Refunds Returns We do accept 30-day returns at our expense if we are at fault for: · Damage not described · Damage not photographed · Misleading description, however unintentional ?Buyer?s remorse?, ?doesn?t fit?, and all other returns including shipping damage will be accepted at YOUR expense. I am an honest and reasonable person, and I run an honest company, but AS IS means exactly that, and we make no warranties or guarantees, either written or implied. Look carefully at what you are buying before you commit! The photographs and description tell the story. As always, we appreciate your time and your business. Thank you for looking at our merchandise! 2025 TOFH
