    Hello all!
    I spent more then I ever have at a garage sale today. $60! But I got a lot of nice quality Fenton among other things. Also a Red Wing pottery vase, a Majolica cup, Some wedgwood, and, of all things......6 unopened packs of 1982 E.T. Cards LOL.
    I hope I didn't shoot myself in the foot!
    Any opinions and insights welcome!
    Thanks!

    I like the creamer with the roses or peonies on it. THe ET cards might pay for the lot.

    @Bdigger I love the colour on the lidded stretch glass piece - is that Fenton?

    Not a mark to be had, is my guess. There often isn't.

    Do you know the maker of the vase at the back in the first pic: white exterior; turquoise interior; ruffled top with colorless edging? Think one I have in bright pink & white is same shape.

    Yes, that is Fenton Silvercrest. Google lens also mentions wave crest but it’s from the 50s and it’s not marked

    The Delft is De Porceleyne Fles if you didn't know already and a very good modern maker however I'm not sure it's selling as well as it once did when I look.

    Is your majolica creamer Etruscan?

    Yes I knew that. I usually only buy delft if it's made by them. But now I'm thinking I'll go back because she had more delft marked with different makers marks, but for $1.00 ea. it has to be worth it! LOL

    You have a comma out of place. The color of the stretch glass candy is called Celeste Blue. It's not the name of the pattern. In stretch glass you only get the item number. It's the #643 BonBon. Dave Shetlar's website: http://www.shetlarglass.com/stretchglass/SGCompanies/Fenton/Fenton09.htm

    The cranberry piece with the white edge is Fenton also. It's gorgeous. Evey may be right about the ET cards paying for the whole lot.

    You got a great haul for a mere $60.

    Thank you Pam @ola402 for the great information. I think they are all beautiful. The website is really interesting. I'll save it so I can refer to it. It seems like it's going to be a Fenton-like summer! :hilarious:
