    Wow, those are some guide prices!:eek:. I’m totally ignorant of glass of this quality. Presumably it’s all exceedingly rare.

    It's absolute hen's teeth. Quite a bit of facon de Venise, which is incredibly fragile wondrous stuff.

    I can't keep a set of heavy tumblers intact for 10 years, how in the world has this survived? Some friends and I went to the Corning Glass Museum a few years back and there were intact pieces from biblical times. I was stunned!

    I have no interest in owning pieces like these. Best left to the museums. I would be too uncomfortable with it and terrified of breaking it. But I can look!
