    Yesterday I posted in the furniture section with a couple pieces of furniture we are trying to value from my wife's great aunt's house. Today I stumbled across some old boxes in the basement with lots of glass items. I do know that most of these are knock offs and not worth very much, but I do have a couple of items that I can't seem to find anything on.
    1) What looks like a hand painted dish of some sorts. Has "1812 Italy" written on bottom

    2) A Erich Stauffer figurine that, no matter what a google search, I can't find anything on

    3) A Hummel Figurine, thoughts on condition.

    4) A shot of the entire haul. If anything jumps out at anyone please let me know. SO MUCH MILK GLASS

    Erich Stauffer was an artist for Arnart Creations - this is a Hummel imitation.
    Most Hummels have dropped in value, damage makes them worth even less. That said, check what they sold for on ebay to get an idea of value.

    I'm no glassie.....but I see some value there !
    & while this is not a site that prices items.....there are several folks here who will be willing to ballpark a piece , once it's been established as to origin.

    The hobnail scalloped pieces should be Fenton....

    ( I can't believe I just said that...!!!! .......Thanks Glassies !! )

    Yeah, I must've looked through all of the figurines by Erich Stauffer and I could not find that one specific one anywhere. I know way more about Erich than I probably wanted to...

    Oh yeah, most of it is Fenton and Westmoreland.

    Haha, I know nothing about this stuff! I only know because the bottom's say so. I'm here for the osmosis as well!

    Sorry, I misunderstood your question on that one. I didn't bother to look for that figure, they tend to have little value.
    The bowl in the front, right hand side, looks like it is an epergne - do you have the horns for it?
    Hey Komokwa, I'm impressed:)

    The bumps are Fenton's Hobnail pattern.

    Can we see a picture of the Hobnail cup and saucer.
    I don't think I have seen one that shape. May not be Fenton, but an earlier maker. Can't tell from the group picture.

    The bowl is not an epergne. The other is a candle bowl.

    Pat, I think the hobnail Cup is really the Star Shaped Cream and Sugar set. The creamer looks like it's sitting on top of a Westmoreland Paneled Grape Saucer. The Fenton MG Hobnail candle bowl, I can only get rid of those if I make them free with purchase, LOL!

    ola402 is correct. The saucer was no meant for that cup. Here are a couple of pictures. IMG_3804.JPG IMG_3805.JPG IMG_3806.JPG
