2013 Museum Slides

Museum Photo Slide Show – 2013

Each year the displays at the National Museum of Cambridge Glass are changed during the “down” period from November through March. This page features a slide show of photographs from the inside of the National Museum of Cambridge Glass from the year 2013.

For 2013, in the museum Sample Room, member Lynn Welker showcases pieces from Cambridge’s 3400 line. There are some spectacular vases, a number of etched pieces and some items in experimental colors. The pattern on the 3400 line is one of the methods we use to teach visitors and new collectors to recognize Cambridge Glass when they are browsing at antique shops.

This year the Dining Room is filled with beautiful items in the Caprice pattern, complements of Rick and Cindy Jones. All colors of Caprice are represented, with place settings at the table in four different colors: La Rosa, Moonlight Blue, Mocha, Pistachio and Amber. Around the room you will see some rare and unusual Caprice items.

In the Members’ Feature Display Room for 2013, the Old Morgantown Glass Collectors’ Guild has loaned glass for our viewing. Jim and Leora Leasure and Sandy Walker arrived at the museum on February 23rd with several boxes of Morgantown Glass. They were very organized and finished their display that afternoon. Members and visitors will enjoy seeing the variety of colors and designs and we also look forward to welcoming members of the Old Morgantown Glass Collectors’ Guild to the museum throughout the year.
