Up for bid is a rare oppurtunity to acquire these beautiful Stiegel type decorative glass flasks. These amazing examples of 1700's glass work is most certainly Heinrich Wilhelm Stiegel's work. Although only a true collector could verify its authenticity, the two pieces come from a private collection of Stiegel Glass (12 total) that was passed on to our family from our Great Grandmother who was born and raised in Lancaster PA and was an avid collector of Stiegel glass. Heinrich Wilhelm Stiegel. Stiegel was a master craftsman who became a legend in his own time as the flamboyant owner of iron and glassworks. Stiegel glass cannot be definitely identified since his workers took his methods to other factories after his own went bankrupt. However, Stiegel-type flint glass, or crystal, was widely known for its beauty, fragility, and the brilliance of its colors. A wide variety of glassware -- from wineglasses, sugar bowls, and cruets to windowpanes and chemists' bottles -- was made at the Stiegel furnace. Pieces made of white, amber or clear, glass have their decoration of birds, tulips, and scrolls painted on freehand with red, green, and yellow enamel. The motifs used reflect typical Pennsylvania German traditions of decoration. Because of the rarity and value of this amazing glass, the highest bidder will have 5 days to inspect and appraise these pieces and possibly view the entire private collection. If for any reason the buyer does not want to conclude the auction your deposit will be refunded, no questions asked. In most auctions , its buyer beware, but I am so confident in the rarity and the stories behind the collection I am willing to offer this. For anymore specifics or questions please let me know and I will do the best I can to get them aswered. Happy bidding..... The winning bidder must make a 10% deposit via PayPal within 24hrs. at auctions end, unless prior arrangemnts are made.
