Mercury glass was originally considered the "poor man's silver" however in recent years it has become very collectible. Mercury glass was made by pouring a thin coat of silver between two layers of blown glass. The blown glass technique allowed the pieces to be made into a variety of shapes including candlesticks and vases. The glass has a unique depth and luster that is valuable to collectors. This collection includes two larger vases measuring apprx 9-1/4" H and 9-1/2" each and two small candlesticks apprx 4-3/4" T and 5-1/4" T each. Two have London stickers on verso from AMC.
