Rare, vibrant glass attracts buyers
History repeats itself, and collectors who research their collections are often surprised by the findings. In 1892, a group of businessmen in Greentown, Indiana, invested in a company that was brought in by the newly found fuel — natural gas — that had been discovered there.
Two years later, the Indiana Tumbler and Goblet Co. had attracted workers and changed the economy of the small town. The company joined the National Glass Co. in 1899, and they made many types of colored glass that are popular but scarce today. The company was making pressed glass in colors when Jacob Rosenthal arrived in 1900. He was an experienced glass maker. The first new product was chocolate glass, an opaque brown and white glass that was a huge success. Next was an opaque medium green color called Nile green, then golden agate, rose agate, holly amber, milk glass and Vaseline glass. Unfortunately, in 1903 there was a fire. The entire factory was destroyed and never rebuilt. But pieces like this Nile green tumbler attract collectors. This 4-inch-high tumbler sold at a Jeffrey Evans auction for $888.
Q. Several years ago,
my grandmother gave me 12 teaspoons with a note that they were given to my great-grandmother for a wedding gift. They’re marked “Justis & Armiger.” The word “Sterling” is upside down on five of them. Does that add value? I’m thinking of selling them and would like to know their value.
Current prices are recorded from antiques shows, flea markets, sales and auctions throughout the United States. Prices vary in different locations because of local economic conditions.
This Nile Green glass tumbler made by the Indiana Tumbler and Goblet Co. before 1903 sold at a recent auction for almost $900. The glass is very rare.

even a large shrub. But it does highlight a possible prejudice against planting tree peonies — they are slow growing. It’s a fact that tree peonies are pricey. A price of $85 would not be considered expensive for a tree peony a mere foot high. And you don’t have to look hard at all to find plants selling for a few hundred dollars each. One reason for this cost is that tree peonies are sometimes propagated by being grafted upon roots of herbaceous peonies, and 50% success in grafting is considered acceptable. And no matter how a plant is propagated, it takes three or four years before it’s large enough to sell. SpectacSEE REICH, PAGE F9

Now that story has a sequel. Self-isolation has people rediscovering the value of having hardcovers at home. In addition, television networks’ shift to interviews via Skype, rather than in a studio, is revealing the bookcase backdrops of pundits, news anchors and celebrities at home. That domestic exposure sparked a social media conversation about literary decor. Room Rater on Twitter, for example, offers regular, and often snarky, critiques of shelves in the rooms visible behind various talking heads. Room Rater dishes compliments, too. “Just enough clutter,” one tweet reads. “Looks real.” Domestic libraries are first and foremost about books. But the displays also lend an inviting graphic element to decor. Just please, designers say, don’t arrange books pageside out. That affectation makes no sense. However, please do pair books with objects, art, photographs and ephemera.

They’re arranged by color, by author, by language, by genre or not organized at all. “People live in different ways,” says Freudenberger, a Los Angeles-based interior designer. “I think to not have books, it’s a red flag.

The most inviting spot among those pictured may be in a vignette from the Brooklyn brownstone of writer Kathleen Hackett and artist Stephen Antonson. A chair, known as “The Chair,” with an appealingly broken-in sheepskin, is the most coveted reading spot in the house. It is, of course, beside a bookshelf. Fellow Brooklynite, the novelist Jonathan Safran Foer, also says books and reading are about place. “I’m really attached to the idea that different spaces, whether physical or interpersonal, will create different thoughts and experiences,” Foer says. “Having a comfortable chair, good light - these things do put you into a state of mind to better absorb ideas.”

NHL star P.K. Subban and former Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, who got engaged last year, appear to have taken the next step in their relationship: cohabitation. The couple were the buyers of a Beverly Hills Post Office-area home that sold earlier this month for $6.75 million. Set on more than half an acre, the gated house has been renovated and reimagined by JR Builders as a contemporary villa. A column-lined entrance opens to the home of more than 5,500 square feet. The single-story floor plan features high ceilings, gallery walls and skylights that bathe the minimalist-vibe interior in natural light. The gleaming chef ’s kitchen is equipped with two islands. In the family room/ den, there’s a wet bar. A total of four bedrooms and six bathrooms includes an expansive master suite with dual bathrooms and walk-in closets. Outside, tall palms frame a swimming pool with a spa. A built-in barbecue sits nearby. Subban, 30, is a three-time all-star defenseman who currently plays for the New Jersey Devils. Last year, the professional hockey player launched PeeK Productions and starred in “The PK Project,” the production company’s debut effort. Vonn, 35, reportedly got into the production game herself last year with the launch of Apres Productions. The former alpine skiing champion, who retired in 2019, was the overall World Cup champion from 2008 to 2010 and again in 2012.

Summer is sweeter with a porch swing
F YOU WERE TO make a list of things that go into a perfect summer evening, chances are “porch swing” would be somewhere near the top, right up there with “lemonade” and “fireflies.” If you’re a do-it-yourselfer, this classic porch swing project is an attractive and affordable way to get a little closer to your own idyllic evening on the porch. Materials for the project include standard pine lumber (other species also work well) and a small quantity of plywood, which keeps costs down. Easy to personalize, the swing can be raised, lowered or tilted by a simple adjustment to the length of its chains. The project is as easy to build as it is budget-friendly. The slats are straight cuts of standard lumber, and everything else is traced from full-size patterns. To build, simply trace the patterns onto plywood and cut out, and cut the slats to length. Next, sand and assemble the pieces using carriage bolts, machine screws and nails. Finally, apply paint, stain or sealer, attach the chains, hang in a shady spot and pour the iced tea. The porch swing mea-
