A collection of glass tablewares and decorative items including two large carnival glass vases featuring an iridescent metallic finish and ruffled rims. The group comprises a wide variety of clear and coloured glass, including a footed punch bowl, an overhead handle basket, three pitchers, and various bowls, trinket boxes, and jars. Notable items include a vibrant red blown-glass vase, six red tumblers with clear bases, and a textured blue glass pitcher.

A set of six clear glasses featuring gilt rims bears black and gold circular adhesive labels reading Chance Glass, Made in England. Several items in the collection are decorated with traditional diamond and star cut patterns. The lot also includes a pair of glass salt and pepper shakers with metal lids, a clear glass-encased desk lighter, and a small decorative ship ornament. One clear pitcher carries a pink adhesive label marked with the digits 833.
