I'd love to see it in all it's glory!

Saw lots of pictures on etsy.com that gave me the idea. You can get the idea by looking there under vaseline glass.

Was a lot cheaper than filling it up with nice plates and crystal. Paid between $4 and $55 per piece. $18 for the standard fixture and $12 apiece for the 2 bulbs. Have two stretch bowls, the most expensive, a couple of toothpicks, a covered candy dish and an ashtray, a perfume and a few vases. May add 3 or 4 more.

I have a mahogany curio from the 20s (a family piece), but there's no light inside, of course.
I also have it crammed with collectibles - but no Vaseline glass.

Here's a crappy photo:

Here are some photos of vaseline glass under a backlight.

I collect dolls and tea cups.

Can you tell me anything about the doll in the purple chair? Is she from the '20s, maybe?

Someday, I want to get a Tinyette, but they're spendy.

I just find them and keep them. I wish I knew more about it.I have some that are a little bigger than her and sit up. They have similar faces.

But I had a hard time getting them all in the frame.

That's an attractive way to display the beautiful old glass pieces. Good stuff!
