Potential for light stacking scratches (surface flea bites) or utensil marks. Check for 'cloudiness' caused by dishwasher minerals which can be permanent.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (for vintage collectors), eBay (broad reach), or Facebook Marketplace (to avoid high shipping risks with glass).
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Depression Style,' 'Cottagecore,' 'French Vintage,' and 'Pink Glass.' Backlit photography is essential to show the translucency and color. Ship with excessive bubble wrap as glass is heavy and subject to rough handling.
