    I don’t think you did but don’t use the Gallery.

    Hi, Tiffany! I hope you don't mind, but I've resized your photos & cropped them a bit so that everyone can see your collection. (I'm quite a fan of ruby glass, myself!)

    p.s. I had that little Avon ruby Cape Cod glass "cruet", filled with bath oil, in the late 1960's. (My great aunt had a friend who sold Avon, and she bought it for me.) I don't have it any longer, but I do remember it fondly!

    Your last black piece was made by Indiana Glass for Tiara from 1977 through 1988. Indiana called it a chalice with cover.

    Your Avon is called Cape Cod in ruby. Not sure what glass company made the glass for Avon. Could have been Fostoria or Indiana, but I don't really know.
    It was and still is quite popular. Lots of different pieces available.

    This site has the highest prices. I tell my customers to use it for insurance purposes. At least you will be able to id the pieces and see what others may be available.

    Avon's 'Cape Cod' was made my Wheaton for Avon.
    The black hex candy box was made by Indiana Glass for Tiara Exclusives and called 'Colonial' and is a reproduction of Hazel-Atlas 'Americana' (I think)

    Hi,
    I agree with TallCakes. Avons "Cape Cad" was made by Wheaton for Avon.

    I knew Wheaton had made for avon. I started collecting the black tiara cause it' been harder to find an suppose to be more rare. Think of it this way back in the day alot if folks didn' want the black because they couldn't see through it to see what was actually in the glass so it was not as popular is what I hear. Sure I could get online an just order stuff for my collection but it much more fun for me to hunt it down myself I've also just bought 2 pieces of blue Fenton glass also even though my collection has been the red an black I know fenton is very sought after also
