I have documentation stating that this 4 1/2" "hand made crystal Taiwan" Pineapple was purchased in 1927. It is at least 92 years old and look at the box, it was sold at Christmas 1927.
I see these on the internet with no mention of the age. This one was purchased on a honeymoon trip to Omaha Nebraska. The couple eventually had a son who is now in a nursing home. He saved his parents old keepsakes, until he sadly lost his memory.
This little box and pineapple now lives in the archives of Collectors Weekly to help others with identification. I believe that would please the original owners for sure.
Beautiful crystal pineapple and wonderful history about it, great post
Yes, they would be pleased and proud of you for honoring the family. So am I!
