Hi. Thank you for your comment. I have been doing this close to same time as you and there is so much I still have no clue with. Antiques are such a big area. No one can know it all.
Hey Walter , How is the Chinese porcelain collecting going . would you do a video showing us your better pieces of Chinese porcelain you have gathered.
Thanks for that Walter,I remember watching the first glass videos you put out drawing your own pictures and explaining the different feet etc. I have learned so much from then up to now and I have to say it was you that inspired me to learn about glass. I am far from an expert but I feel I have a good knowledge of what to look for now, thanks to you.I paid a lot for some of the books, but they were definitely worth the money. Thanks again, for not only helping me, but making good money on the way.
One of your best videos, informative and helpful. Glass is one my favourite things to look out for and so few people know what old glass is. Just over a year ago I scored a bucket bowl, air twist stem wine glass for 50 cents in France, it's probably English. I find quite a few snapped pontil ouraline wine glasses, but can find little or no information about them.
Thanks Walter. Great knowledge for me. I’m in USA. This not a Georgian query. Are you familiar with Royal Leerdram. I have seen air twist and tear drop glassware that looks similar to some of the pieces that you showcased that some are identifying as Leerdam. Is there a way to identify Leerdam, Holland? I am assuming they’re a much more recent manufacturer. I have three styles in two different sizes, air twist, teardrop, and tavern ale, 52 pieces. I can’t find anyway to know if they are Royal Leerdam or Blenko from West Virginia. Thank you for all of your videos.
Thanks Walter. I bought English Drinking Gasses 1675-1825 by Bickerton and it is a little pocket guide for £5 and I think it’s a great, affordable introduction to the subject. I would love to see a video about what antiques/ collectibles are growing in popularity and value. Thanks again
i can make modern renditions of any of these in any color you can possibly imagine but theyd be non leaded glass. love the old time drinkware. such a technical treat to make a batch and practice getting good at them. in a factory system environment no one person is doing them start to finish. thats the difference between a trained master and an assembly line worker. one does it all, the other is a step in the process. in the factory the blowpipe goes from person to person each doing the same step ad nauseum til they hate life lol. i did not last long in a glass factory, but i will make drinkware if people want in an artisanal manner. ill do whatever people wanna pay for lol
Hello. In the lock down I have decided to sell my coin collection. I was wondering if you was interested. If so maybe I could send you photos. Have a good day. Thanks. Steven
How can I identify Bristol blue glass Walter
Good video! The glass @15:22 looks Victorian to me. Is it not an example of a wrythen-moulded Sunderland Ale glass from around 1870?
It’s amazing what I don’t know after 30 years in the trade 👍

Thank you for sharing Walter helping me no end.
Very informative. Learnt a lot from one video!!

Fantastic video as usual. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
What a fabulous video Edward. Really interesting . Looking forward to the rest in the "series" ! Take care my friend
Looking forward to your glass videos 👍
Very interesting. I shall keep an eye out. Love the custard cup!!
any truth to contention that leaded glass leaches into liquid and is carcinogenic as it was to the carvers who got it in their lungs?
Hi thank you for your message. Yes the FDA have put out warnings about it. Google it and you will see
Very informative glass class.
Stay safe.
thank you for your dedication and love of antiques, you are helping me sort out so much!!
Truly what an eye opener of a video can't wait to learn from you and when possible start to buy glass when we get back to normal thank you
Thank you
As usual Walter. Great work!!

Would love to see something like this on every topic you know 👍🙈 great content
Really enjoyed when you were explaining it to me when I was over a while ago

Hi Steven where you from. Please send me some pics to walteroneill1977@aol.com
Not all of the glasses ring, even though they are genuine.
Too much information at one time.
