Cranberry glass is made with real gold.Whether very old or manufactured yesterday, Cranberry glass (or gold ruby) is one of the most difficult forms of elegant glassware to produce. This highly desirable collectible, named for it\'s resemblance in color to a glass of cranberry juice is achieved by adding a gold chloride to hot molten red glass. It is a delicate blown glass and is made by both free-blown and mold-blown methods. The process is painstaking, requiring the skills of a master glass craftsman to execute successfully. The results are beautiful and pieces with age are highly sought by collectors world wide. True cranberry is produced one piece at a time. This is due to the high cost of gold and delicate mixing process required.
Please do not assume I am an expert with the items I sell or that pickle castors are all original or \"Mint\", unless specified as such. Many pickle castors on the market from the 1870\'s to the early 1900\'s have had parts replaced or changed out, due to breakage, lost tongs/forks or damaged parts. Glass from this era many times has \"straw marks\", \"bubbles\", \"shear marks (nicks)\", \"dye swirl lines\", extra glass, due to the hand blown and hand made process and tarnish on silver plate items (please note, items may be more tarnished when received than they are in photos depending on how long the item was listed due to normal silver tarnish process). Antiques are considered to be 100 or more years old, and most will have normal wear. I will do my best to mention any after market and factory issues and provide ample photos for you to view. Ask any questions you have prior to offerding.
