Welcome to my page. It is intended to show the items I am now interested in collecting, early glass vials and other early glass, to which I am a newcomer.
There is also links to items I have or still am collecting, such as baby feeders, inkwells and a variety of stoneware with a leaning towards Warrens blacking Bottles or jars.
The collection has been amassed over 40 years with little or no real direction. Some items have, with regret, been sold while new items have been bought.
I am now at a time when perhaps I should be limiting my choice of theme and acquiring a deeper knowledge of that theme. As I have said I am a newcomer to early glass with much to learn, so should anyone find an error please do not hesitate to let me know. Also let me know if you have any items you believe may be of interest to me.
I am sure most people are aware of David Walker Barker, Artist and a long-standing collector of early glass in its many forms.David has contributed to what I believe is an interesting insight to a dedicated collector, do not miss the link at the top of the site to sketch's and Daffy's.

For those lucky enough to attend the many bottle fairs, and in particular, Elsecar, there are several collector/dealers who are willing to give advice on these items.
