Weaknesses galore, I have too many. Like art glass. I especially look for mirror imaged pairs. Like the pair of Webb peach blow bulbous vase. The large compote in the middle 3rd shelf down, is a 1880's Bristol glass piece with Mary Gregory painted couple on the base. Top middle green vase is a piece of Mont Joye with a gilt Iris enameled on the front. Too many pieces to describe. Enjoy the pic!
