Well the title should tell you a little about the site. I love Jadite or as some might write... Jadeite. It's a beautiful green (minty) opaque glass with a translucent quality. Depending on how the light hits it, the shades of color seem to move and change before your eyes. I find it quite unique. It was first introduced in 1930 by Mckee Glass Company followed by Jeannette and then my favorite....Anchor Hocking Fire King.
I'm afraid I'm addicted to it and can't seem to get enough of it. If your here reading, chances are your hooked too! It just seems to capture you on first site, and then your hooked. The world goes green!
I'm just getting started here, but I hope to add pictures of my own collection as it progresses along with some historical information about patterns, dates, markings and prices.
My favorite......so far.... is the Fire King Restaurant ware and Fire King Charm which I will talk more about in upcoming post. Like the dishes I'm vintage, so please bare with me as I learn some new things about blogging and how to get this information in here.
I'm just looking to make this a fun place to maybe talk about collecting vintage kitchenware. I'm also hoping I can compile a reference library for not only myself, but others who may like to get historical information. I am new at this and will be learning as I go along. If you like to follow please jump on board and tell me about your collection, and how you started too.
What's not to love about that! I just love the light reflections.
