Valentine derived from Valens, meaning worthy.  In the 1800’s it was the day of exchanging Love Letters & Commercial Valentines were introduced.  Well as they say, we have come a long way from just sending those love letters.  
February is known as the Month of Romance, yes love is in the air for most of us.  Giving Crystal is a special way to say “Love You”, not to just your sweet one, but to your Kids, grandparents, Mom, Dad or your best friend, they all do a lot for you.  We here at Unique Collector Glassware have many crystal items that say or express just what you want to say & they can cherish forever. 
Crystal Blown Roses make the perfect gift & they last forever.  Presenting a Painted Heart Shaped Box with a necklace or ring inside.  Then sit back and watch your favorite Movie.  Here are a few of the old movies,  Casablanca, Gone with the wind, (one of my favorites) An Affair to Remember or Doctor Zhivago.  These are just a few.  In the next couple of days we will present more ideals to keep the Romance alive.  If you have not visited our Sale page, stop by, and remember they are always changing.   
Tips on cleaning your unique Hand Painted & Hand Blown Glassware
 
Do not put your glassware in the Dishwasher, Hand wash in warm soapy water. This will keep your glassware looking great for years to come.
 
No, you cannot put your glassware in the microwave.
 
Dry with a soft cloth so as to not scratch.
 
Handle the body of your glassware, not the stem when cleaning.
 
If stains appear on your glassware, gently rub with half a lemon, wash with vinegar, or soak the interior with powdered dentifrice dissolved in lukewarm water.
 
In areas with very hard water & high mineral content, distilled water will help prevent staining.
 
To avoid scratching, dust with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened in a mild solution of 1-part ammonia to 2-parts water.
 
Do not expose to rapid temperature changes or extremes of temperature.
 
Avoid placing in direct sunlight.
 
Store your glassware right side up; do not stack; Avoid sliding or twirling the glass.
 
Avoid packing glassware in newspaper or other moisture-absorbing materials for long periods of time; soft cloth or bubble wrap is perferable.
 
Remember to sit back and enjoy your glassware.
