the two pitchers are jeannette glass "adam" pattern, in which they produced 4 items in crystal. i bought this pair from a 70 year old woman in ohio, whose mother had bought them from a department store. as for the cups, they are also jeannette, in windsor pattern. the color is ice blue. i happened upon them at a second hand place and have been actively looking for saucers for almost a year now... no one really says that they have even seen windsor in this color before.

These are definitely rare pieces. The ice blue windsor cups are $75.00 each but I hate to tell you but saucers were never made for these items. Now on to the Adam Pitchers, they are VERY rare and I would place a value of $800.00-$1,000.00 on the pair. (IF PERFECT)
you know it really irritates me when this site doesnt tell you that someone commented on your post. i wasnt aware they were up to 75.00 now hearing that there is no saucer for them, is not something that i wanted to hear, i was really hoping to have a set cup and saucer, i would have gladly traded a cup for a saucer. as for the adam pitchers, i have very carefully inspected them,and they are mint, not even shelf wear, the woman i bought them from said her mother bought them and never used them.
she sold me the pitchers for 17 bucks a piece or something like that, and the cups were 69 cents a piece
