Does anyone know what kind of glass this is????

**DreamWarrior** · 03-18-2003, 10:35 AM

I found these in a thrift store (only paid $2 each) and I KNOW that they are antique, I just have NO idea what they are!!!! They are glass, this wonderful blue color, they are opaque, and the sundae cup has a WG intertwined on the bottom.... no dates, (none that I can see anyway) and its DRIVING ME NUTS!!!!!

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!

Maybe Blenko????
Although Blenko is usually somewhat see-through and probably not yet old enough to be antiques ( I think Blenko started in the late 40's, early 50's)

They're very pretty though.

My guess is that the WG stands for Westmoreland Glass. They made carnival glass, milk glass etc. Here's a good site to learn more about them and the different types of glass they made: http://www.glass-time.com/Encycloped...landglass.html

I think that you are right!!!! This is the logo that is on the bottom....

KEWL KEWL KEWL!!!! THANK YOU RAVEN!!!!!!
