I collect Fenton Art Glass for almost eight years, and probably my favorite collection of weapons. Fenton crests are often made of milk glass (though not always) and have a different color of glass to the edge of space are applied. Arms grew from the end of 1930 and today is technically not yet completed. However, most of the peaks, which I gather from the 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's. Here are five tips that I found out quickly in the collection areFenton coat of arms.

1. Choose the colors you like. When I started collecting the ridges, I decided that I wanted a piece of each color have summit, Fenton. A few years later I discovered that I have more than a hundred pieces, and I was not really much of them. Ever since I started my collection on the colors that I like to focus. For me, I like Fenton Blue Ridge, Black-Crest, Snowcrest Blue, Ruby, Silver Crest and Ivory, Crest.

2. Some modelsproperly displayed. It 'really a shame to buy beautiful pieces of glass and then keep them hidden in a box. Use your glass to decorate with. Imagine groups of similar colors to create the centers. Crest has the ability to see very well together, if you have a group Ridge same color and the nuances of the ridge, which makes them really stand.

3. You yourself a challenge. If you know anything about Fenton or bars, you probably notice that the models I listedabove are quite rare. However, the challenge part of the fun. For every hundred pieces of Silvercrest you see that failed to find a single piece of black crest. What makes the conclusion of a black crest much more fun. Just be careful not to make too hard on yourself. Choose a model that you really like your budget.

4. See how the survey that you want. As an alternative to collect for the selection of a single color of the back, to examine the choice ofShape. There are several forms that Fenton, in almost all the different colors of the tip. Collection of Jack in the pulpit vases, baskets, bowls or pink Bon Bons in all different colors can be very funny and they look really cool all displayed together.

5. Looking after the operation. When you start to conquer the peak, is likely to be tempted to buy only the cheapest pieces together. However, to sprinkle some really good songs to remember (or at least keep an eye open forOffers) in your collection. If you're shopping for antiques, or browse the Internet Keep an eye out for special offers and impressive pieces. Rare pieces tend to hold their value much better than standard, and it's always nice to tell the story, where are the best pieces.

6. Books to buy. There are a number of great books that show the different shapes, colors and therapeutic means available, Fenton Crests will. In any case, take the time to check.Also, you can search by category suplimentar mountain on eBay. There you can see some big plays. Just be careful not to spend too much money.

Ultimately, when it comes to gathering scallops you need to buy what you want. I have hundreds of peaks, and are constantly seeking to collect the large room next to mine. Who knows where I can find and this type of transaction that could have been obtained.
