Hello,
I have a set of Mexican blue glass dishes/glasses/candle holders that were purchased in Mexico between 1930 and 1950. There are over 80 pieces, all in perfect condition with the exception of one glass with a small chip on the rim.
I would like to sell all of them as a set if possible. I have no idea what they are worth and how to sell them. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Judy
Dear Judy,
Your set looks sweet! Color is everything and cobalt blue is usually a hit.
I can’t say I’ve dealt with a lot of Mexican glassware from that period of time. I’m thinking it’s probably not easy to determine a value here in the U.S.
To give you my best advice, to price it for sale I think you have to look at it for color, style and condition. Also look at how many pieces you have! I think it should be in the range of $150+.
Now you have to find a buyer and that could be a bit hard. I agree that you should try to sell it as a set. Individually I don’t think it would get as much value.
Judy, I hope this helps and your dishes find a new home! Thanks so much for sharing.
Donna
Note: Judy, pull the one that’s chipped and offer it to the buyer after. Don’t include it in the price. Most people have no interest in any dishes damaged.
