My Czech collection sat idle in the attic for the last 10 years. It wasn't until I constructed this shelf unit that I started collecting again. Over time my goal is to replace some of the common pieces with more notable ones. For now I am just going post the collection but going forward my plan is to post some of my favorites. We all have our favorites but it's the collection as a whole that moves my aesthetic.
Whoa! fabulous display!
... and congrats on post no.1, looking forward to many more ...
You have one of the best ideas for displaying your "great glass collection".....love it!!!
Beautiful display.
What a wonderful collection......some serious admiration going on here!
I really like the way you display your collection. Just some thought: Make sure your shelf is safe! I had a shelf fall apart in June! It was my own fault because I put too much on it and didn't check if the pins were properly in! Two pieces survived: One vase that I hated and one vase my husband bought me as a welcome gift the day I arrived in Canada! Go figure.
BEAUTIFUL Collection and display!

Thanks to all for the comments on the display! It still needs a little tweaking but getting there. I appreciate the comment regarding the safety of the shelf. I think I'm covered. I put a 5 foot wide metal support L bracket under the unit anchored to the studs. In addition multiple screws through he back into the studs. I have read all the stories on CW about unfortunate incidents and can't even imagine how I would feel if this came falling down. It's located over a staircase 10 feet up so I doubt I would have any survivors.
Again, thanks all for your comments, your posts and pieces are my inspiration.
Great Stuff!! I see a lot of very nice Welz in there!!! There are 7 or 8 in there that I would love to see individual images of......
Noted Welzebub... I was collecting Welz years ago and it was relatively easy to find. The number of Welz pieces seems to have dried up. I will post some of my favorite pieces in a few days.
~ Wow ~ Beautiful !!! Collection, and Grouping !!
Thanks Rose... Appreciate your comment
They have dried up because there are quite a few people that collect it now. :-)
AWESOME! Please share some individual pieces too. You have a wonderful array.
Love them all! Do show more!
