Made by Villeroy and Boch, this unique bottle stopper is in the shape of a soccer ball.

It has clear and frosted crystal panels that represent the white and black panels on a soccer ball.

It is made of lead crystal and it has a rubberized band to ensure an air-tight fit.

Brand new in the box, it would make a great gift for one who loves soccer and wine!

I am turning to my readers for some help with this post.

We picked up some vintage Avon items this past weekend, and included in the box were some of these wine glasses.

I believe they are an Albee Award item that was given to select top sellers back in the early 1970’s.

I have searched the internet, ebay, and various other auction and collectible sites, and I am not finding anything at all about them.

I want to get my facts straight before I post anything online for sale - I don’t want to mislead anyone.

If anyone has any info or is familiar with these etched glasses, I would be most appreciative if you would contact me.

Clicking on the photo will bring you to a larger sized one that shows much more detail.

I thank you very much!!

We just listed a new item that we only have one of.

We found these cute table or place mats that are made by Wilscombe Homewares and I am sure they won’t be around long.

They feature a teddy bear dressed in a sailor suit and he is surrounded by various nautical items - an anchor, a sandpail, and he is holding a spy glass by his side.

A lighthouse, seahorses, shells, and a starfish make up the cute borders around the edges.

This is a set of four that would make a great addition to a camp or cabin by the sea.

This is a set steak knives that are made by Laguiole.

These fancy knives are Made in France, and they feature the signature little Bee on each handle.

They are full tang and have pretty marbleized ivory colored handles.

They come packaged in a wood tray that has been designed just for them.

They even come with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Pretty and functional and a great deal too!
