Up for sale this week are these dishes in cobalt blue glass. When stacked together it is very dark blue, but when photo of one piece you can see thru it. I have never seen hand blown dishes, but these are beautiful, every piece is a little different with the imperfections in them. Real art work and sturdy enough to use for every day. I don't know the maker or how old these are. The lady had many items from out of country. Each piece has that mark on the back where you break off the piece. The plates have an edge that is folded over, smooth on the front side, but you can feel the edge on the back. It has a swirl design in the pattern, also. The lady whose estate these came from passed some time ago at the age of 96. I have many items for sale and I can't be an expert on them all, so please email with questions before bidding and I'll try to answer you. I don't sale any items that are damaged without pointing to the flaws, but I am only human. All of my items come from estate sales and auctions, so they are considered used items and will be sold as is. These items came from a sale in West Texas, the lady was 96 years old. Nearly all of her items were from the early 1900's to the late 40's period. Everything was kept in built in glass cabinets and was taken care of. Many unique items I will be listing this week, so be sure to look through my store. If you would like to bid on the whole set, just email for a total price. Thanks! This is for a small basket with handle, very cute. It measures 3 1/2" tall and is 3 1/2" by 3" wide. I have two of these, check out my store.
