Over 350 beautiful images display vintage cut, pattern, and art glass celeries. These images are arranged by celery vase form, including those with and without stems and by stem and bowl shapes. A wide variety of decorative techniques are displayed and discussed. The detailed text explains different decorative techniques, shapes, and motifs, and identifies the glass manufacturers involved. Additionally, it provides a detailed glossary, bibliography, and index. Values are found in the captions. This book will be a treasure to all who love and collect vintage glass.

This is a great book; loved the pictures, but I was hoping for a more complete listing of celery vases.

Although the book contains much more history about glass than I desired, I was able to identify some rare patterns that I own and learn more about them. The pictures are clear and accurate.
