The fine quality of Heisey glass, made in Newark, Ohio, from 1896
to 1958, prompted many decorating companies to buy Heisey blanks on
which to apply their own decorations. Heisey made both clear
crystal and some of the finest colors available for Bonita Art,
Central Glass, Lotus Glass, Oriental Glass, Rainbow Glass, Wheeling
Decorating and many others. Cut and etched patterns were applied to
Heisey glass by Eagle Cut Glass, Hawkes, Monogram, Pairpoint,
Sinclair, and Susquehanna. Even silver overlay and applied metal
ormolu were added to Heisey pieces by Apollo, National Silver,
Poole, Reed and Barton, and Tuttle silver companies. This new and
carefully constructed book fully explores Heisey's 16 beautiful
regular production colors, from Alexandrite to Zircon, along with
several experimental colors, in 541 clear color photographs. Each
color is defined with its production dates and illustrated with a
broad sampling of pieces in many shapes and patterns. The picture
captions include the color, pattern name, pattern number,
measurements, and value of each piece shown. Both advanced and
beginning collectors will find this book a necessary and convenient
reference to stimulate their enjoyment of beautiful Heisey glass.
