About Us
We are Michael and Lori Palmer. We live outside of a very small city called Albemarle in North Carolina which is about 40 east of Charlotte. Albemarle's biggest claim to fame is Kellie Pickler of American Idol. We have twin boys and two cats and spend most of our time serving them.
We recently wrote a book on Charleton - The Charleton Line. It is available from our publisher, Schiffer, or directly from us. Please drop us an e-mail if you would like a copy - mlpalmer@glasshousenc.com
Our collection mainly consists of:
English Opalescent glass by Davidson, Greener, Burtles & Tate, and Sowerby.
Older Fenton, especially Topaz, Blue & Cranberry Opalescent, Burmese and various Optic treatments. We love Charleton and Weissman decorated glass. We really enjoy the beautiful pieces done for Cambridge in the Crown Tuscan line.
We have a very nice assortment of Fenton for Devilbiss perfumes. We also include the older opalescent ones by Duncan, Westmoreland and others.
We also enjoy the Early American opalescent glass of Northwood, Dugan, Jefferson, U.S. Glass and others.
About Glass House
Our personal collection of glass grew so large that we created Glass House both as a means to finance our continually growing collection and to sell duplicates. We search antique shops, auctions, and on the internet to find beautiful, hard to find glassware to offer for sale. Since we buy only what we personally like, actually selling some pieces is difficult to say the least. But, we can't keep it all,can we?
