Goin Once, Twice And Sold For....

This Lot is probably Dorflinger cut Cranberry Crystal circa 1900-1910 and is on the rare side of the equation. The height of the Pitcher is 11.25 inches and the top is sterling. It sold at a local estate auction this morning in one of Americas more prestigious hoods. Anybody care to make a guess at how much the hammer price was?????

$5500? I'm guessing the real price is somewhere in between...

Lets see, eleven pieces, how about a buck a piece, plus a dollar for handling.

12 bucks.

Throw in 3 because the top of the pitcher is silver, and lets make it an even 15 bucks.

I don't get why anyone would pay that much for glassware..... But then I'm happy drinking out of styrofoam cups.
