8 inch tall canister with lid, 6 inch tallcanister with lid, and 3.5 inch tall ashtray. The set is clear and brown. The 8 inch canister has the hand cut sticker still on it. All 3 have a Barone name hand etched on the bottom. Pristine condition with no deformities.
This was owned by my husband's great - aunt. She lived in the Seattle area from the 1950s until the 1980s. There have been no other known owners.
Good morning, Alexa,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. I notice in the photograph of the underside of the 8-inch canister, it reads "HAND CUT / CRYSTAL / By Barone / but I can't make out what it says after that. It may help date these - can you read it and tell me what it says?
Thanks!
Delia
There is nothing below the Seattle - Portland writing.

Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise and thank you for using Mearto.
I am not currently with the item but the only thing I saw under was "by Barone" and under that is says "Seattle - Portland" from what I could tell. I can double check this evening when I get home. Please let me know if you do need anything else or if you have more questions! Thane!
