There are some pieces I just got from my grandmother. I remember hearing stories of her bringing them out from Indiana when she moved to California in the 1940's. I want to say some of the glass has been in the family for over 100 years. I do not know much about them, other than the memories I have and the stories I have been told. If you have any information I would love to know, as I am new to the Indiana Glass World.
