Huge Vintage Tiara Indiana Sandwich Amber Glass Collection w/ Plates/Bowls/Cups+

Description

I'm offering for purchase this amazing collection of Tiara Indiana 'Sandwich' Amber Glass that came from my Grandmother, and I'm giving you the option to purchase exactly what you're interested in. Please note that you'll see both product and shipping discounts when buying multiples!
She loved to collect glass and porcelain, and most items were either never used or barely used. Some of it was on display, and some of it was used once or twice for a party, for example, but you can expect to be purchasing excellent condition pieces that are free of obvious chips and cracks unless noted. Very light wear
should
be expected, like a few fork scratches on a plate for example, to reflect pieces that were used once or twice. The pieces that weren't in cupboards collected a little dust, but you can expect to receive pieces that have been wiped clean by yours truly.
Before I start, note that my goal is to ship this to you as safely and cost-effective as possible as these pieces are heavy. I will be using the most cost effective method, be it UPS/FedEx/USPS Priority Mail, from my home in Illinois to you, wherever that is. If you have shipping requests, feel free to reach out. And if you're interested in the
entire
collection to kickstart a new collection of your own, we can talk about that too.
Without further ado, I'm going to break down each piece in order! (All measurements are approximate and my own)
A: (5x) Apertif Glass
These lovely little stemmed glasses connect with item B, the decanter, and they have a volume of approximately 2 ounces
.
Size: 4-1/8" Tall x 2" Wide
B: Decanter with Matching Stopper
This is a standard-sized 750mL (25.4 ounce) decanter with a lovely glass stopper.
Size: 7-1/2" Tall (w/o Stopper) / 10" Tall (w/ Stopper)
5-1/8" Wide (at the widest point) / 1-1/4" Wide (at the top)
You'll find a little expected glass on glass rubbing at the bottle opening, and that gets concealed when the stopper is placed on the bottle.
C: Fruit Basket
This is a heavy piece, with most of the weight in the base, weighing in at 4 pounds. It will have to be packed extremely carefully to protect the handle, but leave that to me.
Size: 10-3/8" Tall (at the top of the handle) / 5-3/4" Tall (at the highest point of the basket)
11-3/4" Long x 8-3/4" Wide (at the widest point)
Base Diameter = 4-7/8"
All-in-all, it's a lovely display piece for your display pieces, be it fruit or anything else that works with your decor. I struggled to find any blemishes of note, but you will see a few of the tiniest wear marks on the smooth handle if you search closely.
D: Pitcher
And this is the heaviest piece of all, clocking in at nearly 4.5 pounds! Other sellers have this listed at 68 ounces, and I can confirm that's true, though 64 seems more reasonable.
Size: 7-1/4" Tall (at the scalloped area) / 8-1/4" Tall (at the tallest part near the spout)
5-7/8" Diameter (at the top) / 5" Diameter (at the bottom)
9" Long from spout tip to end of handle
Really nice!
E: (2x) Candle Stick
This pair of candle sticks were used at least one time, as there is a little wax residue left over. I'll clean it one more time before shipping to remove 99% of it.
Size: 3-3/4" Tall x 4" Wide (Base Diameter)
F:
(12x) Saucer / Small Plate
These saucers match the cups or mugs (K), and they measure 6" in diameter. These are really nice, overall.
G: (11x) Salad Plate
Like the saucer, these are also nice, and they measure approximately 8-1/4" in diameter.
H: (6x) Dinner Plate
And once again, like the other plates, these are nice too, overall. They measure approximately 10-1/4" in diameter.
I: Goblet / Small Chalice
There's but one of these 8 ounce pieces, and it looks like it was never used. It does however have two minor issues of note to consider. First, there are a few manufacturing bubbles inside the glass, which you can see on the top, and finally, there is the tiniest chip on the very bottom rim, impossible to see.
Size: 5-3/8" Tall x 3-1/4" Diameter (top)
J: Candy Dish w/ Removable Lid
This was a piece that I couldn't find online from another seller. Either way, the domed lid is easily lifted to reveal the dish, which is perfect for candy or nuts. The first thing I did is check the edges, as I expected some wear from the glass on glass, and because the lid is heavy, so it would be easy to ding.
Here's what I found: the rim of the lid has a few
tiny
dings, and you'd have to go out of your way to notice. The rim of the dish has more of a roughened edge, with tiny dings and one bigger chip on the inside of the ring. There's also a scratch / stretch crack on the base of the dish portion. I took photos, though it's challenging to see.
Dish Dimensions:
7-1/4" Wide (Base) / 4-1/4" Wide (Center)
Lid Dimensions:
5-1/2" Tall x 5" Wide
And with the lid on, this piece measures approximately 6-1/4" Tall.
K: (12x) 5 Ounce Mug
These little mugs with attached handles are really nice like the matching plates.
Size: 2-3/4" Tall x 3-1/2" Wide (Top) / 2-1/8" (Bottom)
L: (
Fenton) Daisy Button Glass Shoe
I'm new to amber glass, so I didn't realize this wasn't a Tiara/Indiana piece when I took the original photo of everything together, but since it matches so nicely, I figured I'd keep it up as part of this listing anyway! This woman's shoe is in
excellent
condition, but I did note two manufacturing bubbles in the glass.
Size: 6" Long x 2-1/8" Wide
M: Serving Bowl
Another really nice piece, this bowl would be perfect for serving.
Size: 8-1/2" Wide (top) / 5" Wide (bottom) x 3" Tall
N: (2x) Small Bowl
And finally, here are two small bowls that match the condition of most everything else - they're really nice!
Size: 4-3/4" Wide (top) / 2-1/8" Wide (bottom) x 1-3/4" Tall
If you made it this far, thanks for looking!
