The Co-Operative Flint Glass Company was founded in 1879 as the Beaver Falls Co-Operative Glass Company. As the early name indicates, this company was located in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Several shapes were introduced/produced in 1925.


This firm started out as the Beaver Falls Co-operative Flint Glass Co. in 1869, later changing their name (in 1889) to Co-operative Flint Glass Co. The firm operated until 1937, closing due to the economic depression.

Amberina glass, blended colour glass in which the lower part, a yellowish amber, merges into a ruby-red colour higher in the vessel. It was patented in 1883 for the New England Glass Company at East Cambridge, Mass., and was produced extensively there and by the successor company, the Libbey Glass Company at Toledo, Ohio, into the 1890s. The base metal was an amber glass containing some gold, and the tinges were developed by applied reheating. The glass was sometimes blown in molds.

HAY MARK OR SHEAR MARK...

A shear mark aka straw mark is caused when the shears used to cut a glob of molten glass from a gather so it goes into the mold cools the glass faster causing either a ridge or a valley which does not go through the glass.
