Vintage Royal Ruby by Anchor Hocking Glass

 

Here’s a recent Goodwill find….vintage Royal Ruby glassware!  When I walked in the store, I didn’t get a shopping cart.  My son went down one aisle and I went down another.  When I saw all the red glassware, I was just giddy with delight.  I stood guard over it and yelled at my son to go get me a cart!!  There was just too much of it to hold all at once!

 

 

There were 8 tumbler glasses with 6 having the original label.  After a little research, I found that the style of the creamers and sugar was part of the R-4000 series which was made in the mid 1950’s.  Since these were all together, I’m guessing the all the pieces are from that period

 

 

Four salad plates… 

 

and a creamer and sugar were in the mix but no cups.

 

 

Four swirl tumblers and four sherbet glasses.

 

I was just so excited because I’ve been wanting some type of Ruby Red for so long and also it’s just in time for the Christmas holiday!  I have already used the sherbet glasses in a Halloween tablescape that you can see here.  

 

Total spent for this little vintage collection…$12.98 plus tax!  Replacements.com had the plates and sugar/creamer for $70!

 

The past couple of weeks I have found quite a bit at GW and I’ll be sharing my finds with you in the coming weeks.

 

Thanks for stopping by!
