The museum has been extremely fortunate to be the recipient of some wonderful glass during the last year. Some pieces were donated specifically to be added to the collection, but we received a lot of glass that was designated for the benefit of HCA. All of this glass is reviewed and any item which is not found to be in the collection is also accessioned into the museum collection. The remainder is designated to be sold either in our Museum Shop or at a future auction.
Some of you have inquired as to what the museum would like to add to our collection. For a long while the museum’s objective was to have a good representative collection with examples of all patterns, colors, and decorations done at the Heisey factory. We have now expanded the collection objective to have a solid study collection that encompasses all items that A.H. Heisey & Company produced. Any piece that the museum does not own would be accepted. If you have a piece that you think the museum does not own, call the museum and we will check our database. If you have many pieces, send us a list and we will gladly let you know which pieces the museum would like.
