RARE 1920's Fry Foval Art Glass Sherbert Cups Jade Opalescent Stem.

Two Opalescent Fry "Foval" line tall sherbets, or wine glasses, with Jade green stem, produced in 1926 or '27 in Rochester, PA. Fry invented the opalescent glass in an attempt to create a heat-resistant glass. This led to Fry's oven glass line that was made all through the '20s and competed directly with Corning's Pyrex. During the winter of '26/'27 the company experimented with a line of art glass that made use of the unintended beauty of the oven glass formula, but the high cost meant hardly anyone could afford it, so not much was produced and the line was discontinued quickly. One of the most beautiful and under appreciated lines of American art glass. The unique chemistry of the glass gives it similar optical properties to earth's atmosphere - light reflecting off the surface is white to sky-blue, but light passing through shines a fiery red/orange. Pictures don't do it justice. Gives standing ring when tapped.
