Welcome to Edie's Glassware! A place for Depression Glass, Elegant Glass, Kitchen Glass, Pottery and much much more.
In the late spring of 1999 Edie's Glassware made it's way to the Internet. Now over 8 years later the web site takes on a new transformation. Browsing through all of the Depression Glass, Elegant Glass, Kitchen Glass, Pottery and more will now be easier than ever!
With over 300 visitors a day, this 3rd in a series of site revisions brings the best of the past and adds to it a new wealth of items for sale, photos of items that have been sold and information about collecting glassware.
|
Some of the new features
that have been added begin with a massive database of all of the inventory, past and present. The power of this database will allow for all sorts of possibilities.

Another new feature enables visitors to not only fill out a form to ask questions about an item, but also attach up to 3 photos. The addition of photos with the inquiry will do much to speed up the process and return and answer quickly.
Over the weeks to come, information about the various glass companies such as years in business, pattern names and links to reference books will be added to each specific manufacturer page. Links to related pages around the web site and internet will also be added.
|
Other features include a new navigation system enabling the visitor to get from one page to nearly any other page of the web site in just one click. This new expandable menu is color-coded to make it quick and easy to use.

This new web site revision is taking place at the same time as an end comes to a part of the history of Edie's Glassware. The shop located in South Park, PA is now closed. All of the items have been moved into storage and will eventually end up here on the web site. As you can imagine, packing thousands of pieces of glass and then getting them organized is a huge undertaking. Closing of the shop will allow for more time to be devoted to the web site and adding more items to it.
Rest assured that Edie's Glassware is still very much "in business" but just taking a different turn in it's history.
Please look around and come back often. The goal over the next weeks and months is to continue to grow into one of the best places on the internet to find and learn about glassware.
Enjoy your stay!
