This pattern was originally made by Adams Glass in Ohio from 1885 to 1890 when US Glass took over the pattern and continued producing it until 1895.  I have managed to assemble a  collection of representative pieces in all 4 colors and clear.  The colors produced were Amber, a sweet honey brown with golden tones. Blue a mild clear sky blue.  Apple Green, a light green that will fluoresce a bright yellow green when held under a </b><B>" Black Light ".</b><B>  And Canary (also called Vaseline)  a cheerful yellow that glows  green in sunlight and fluoresces brightly under  " Black Light ". The Green and Canary both contain a little Uranium to give the color and fluorescence. Since the pattern has never been reproduced  it is comforting to know that when you do see a rare piece  you know that it is the real thing and not a modern copy.  These were made  inexpensively over 100 years ago  to use everyday,  so expect to see small chips and flakes.  Few pieces are as they were the day they were made, they reflect the use and care they received over the past 125 years.  </b></div> <div> <B>Check out the EAPG web site to learn  more about collecting antique patterned glass, the  varieties are endless  and some are extremely rare and expensive.</b></div> <div> <B>Check your Grandmother's curio cabinet  you never know  there maybe a rare item  that you just thought was an old glass dish  or pitcher.  Take the time to learn  you may discover  a new hobby.</b></div> <bR> <div> <I><B>I am looking to fill some gaps in the collection, if you have or know someone with  Blue,  Green  or Canary Valencia Waffle pieces to sell  please contact me.     Time to  let some of these piece go.  For Sale   all of the Clear and Amber pieces,  contact  me if you are intetested  in   either the CLEAR  or AMBER pieces. .</b></I></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <IMG SRC="0cd68ad0.jpg" border=0 width="360" height="173" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div>  Valencia Waffle Pitchers  in Amber. </div> <bR> <div> There are four sizes in all, though no  reference book that I have seen  makes any reference to the existence of two sizes of Cream Pitchers.  Note the small pitcher has 4 rows of pattern while the large Cream has 5 rows of pattern.

At  the time they  seemed a bit small  but without  a ruler in my pocket to check   I just assumed that it was my imagination.   When  we returned home we found that  these "new" dishes were only 3 1/2 inches across.  Dainty  with  outstanding definition  and fine wear to  the base  I can fine no reference to  a sauce  or berry bowl  in this size.   The photos  above   show   one of the  little Canary sauce dish   and one of  my 4 inch Apple Green  Sauce dishes.   As  you can see  the Canary dish is considerably smaller.    It is also pictured with a group  of different sizes of  Low Standard  compotes ( 8, 7, 5,  4 and  3.5 inches).   I have  High Standard  compotes in  8, 7, 6, and 5 inches  which only makes sense that there is also  a low standard compote in the 6 inch  size. </div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="4adfae90.jpg" border=0 width="250" height="233" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div>        </div> <bR> <div> A pair of Salt shakers  in Blue with original lids and  original "Richardson Agitator".</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="4ddf4d70.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="215" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Goblets  , master Salts  and  salt shakers   (<FONT SIZE="1" COLOR="#FFFFFF" FACE="Arial" >oops  I forgot the amber one</FONT>)</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="4d7f41a0.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="282" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">              </div> <bR> <div> Syrup Pitchers in all Varieties</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="4d913dc0.jpg" border=0 width="275" height="220" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">     <IMG SRC="4db13ce0.jpg" border=0 width="275" height="206" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div>        Green Cake Stand  </div> <bR> <bR> <div>   <IMG SRC="0e0b4950.jpg" border=0 width="180" height="149" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div>       Blue Open Compote </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div>  </div> <div> <IMG SRC="4b2c7480.jpg" border=0 width="199" height="328" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Rarely seen   Canary Pickle jar </div> <div> in  an Antique Castor  Frame.
