Six 1890s larger German Glass Ornaments. Geometrics, Cones, Spheres, etc.. In the winter, nothing to do in the fields, and this was a way for the family to make extra money. Six 1890s larger German Glass Ornaments. Geometrics, Cones, Spheres, etc. 3.00 to 6.00", and in very good condition, considering their very early age. This was a cottage industry in the area of Lauscha, Germany. In the winter, nothing to do in the fields, and this was a way for the family to make extra money. The fathers and the older sons blew to ornaments from clear glass. The Women and the older girls then would silver the ornaments. After drying for a few days, they would hand paint the ornaments. Then they were packaged and stored in their homes. In the spring when they were in the fields, the grandmas would transport the ornaments down the hills to the train station, where they would travel to seaport cities, and then transported to America on Ships. They were always placed on the top of other cargo as they were so light, and filled the ships to capacity. These ornaments being listed today are vintage, not reproductions. I guarantee that. I start all my auctions at .99 cents as it is an auction and I just never cared when I went to live auction and the auctioneer started very high, and then spent time backing down to get a bid. I know it is a low bid, but that is how I list every item on Ebay. I am more than happy to combine postage to save money. Just let me know you are multiple bidding and I will invoice you when you are finished bidding and wish for me to send the items. Then, I will combine postage and send to you, and send final invoice. If any questions about this, please email me.
