These three are some of several pieces of milk-glass I have. I understand them to have been the "poor mans" glass back in the day. I love the creamy look of these old pieces of glass.

Hi Crystal, I've been out of the country for a few months and am just getting back and getting around to thanking those that stopped by to take a peek at some of my stuff. I was just looking at Hobbnail Milk Glass on eBay this evening. I think I even saw all of what I have only with different patterns. Just do an eBay search on antique milk glass and you will see several hundred pieces. Good luck finding your exact piece. But I bet it's there. let me know if you have any luck and thx again for taking the time to stop by and for taking the time to make a comment.
Cheers, Kerry aka Bahamaboy
