Woodmere Creating New Glassware Designs!

Woodmere is now creating new handpainted glassware designs! In the photo at left, Bobbi - one of our hand liners - is hand decorating gold (yes, that's gold...it's brilliance to come into view upon being fired in our kilns) onto a new trumpet champagne flute.

Made in America....in New Castle, Pennsylvania.....by Woodmere.

Woodmere: Days Gone By

Back a few years, Woodmere was a large producer of collector plates, like the ones shown here. These are from a 1980 series called "Little People". Woodmere collector plates show up from time to time on Ebay and other antique auction sites.

Long many things, times in the collector plate busines have changed and we no longer produce collector plates under the Woodmere name. So, if you have any with our backstamp (note the old backstamp in the photo) hang onto them. You just may have something valuable.
