Who We Are: An avid group of American Iridescent Stretch Glass collectors
Our Goals: Help preserve this beautiful glass and the history of its manufacture as part of our American heritage, to educate the public as to its existence, to promote an appreciation of collecting this type of glass -- and to have fun while doing all of the above!
