Welcome, here you will find a somewhat complete listing of my private collection of Anchor Hocking Fire King Forest Green Charm Glassware. The set is not for sale and I am currently not able to purchase any new pieces. I reviewed this listing on February 7, 2009, the inventory was accurate, no pricing was updated. This is not by any means a complete listing of pieces available, but it will give you an idea of what the set looks like and some characteristics of them. The prices listed on this site are average for a piece of the set that is in mint condition. Pieces can be found at garage sales and antique stores, depending where you find them the prices will differ greatly.
Some History Behind My Forest Green Set... I received my first pieces of Forest Green Charm Glassware from my grandma, Mary Wheeler in 1996. My cousin Crystal and I split the place setting of 8 and have proceeded to build on them. I have been working to add to the collection since fall of 1996 and eventually I would like to have a place setting of 12. Once I have a complete set of 12 I would like to begin collecting the Ruby Red Charm Glassware for a Christmas setting.
I currently use three books as reference, they are listed below.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. |

Some
characteristics to look for on the Forest Green Charm Glassware are gold
and green stickers with a ruffled edge. They say, "ANCHOR HOCKING,
GLASS CORP. LANCASTER OHIO, U.S.A." with the words, "Forest
Green Anchorglass" in the middle. The Charm collection is not marked
in the glass mold with a logo. Most of the pieces that you will find today
are missing the sticker, those that have the sticker will be worth more.
The Charm collection also has a starburst pattern on the bottom of the
plates and bowls. All of the plates, bowls, and coffee cups are square.
