New In Box. Don't Ya Just Love That Phrase? These Lovely Libbey Seville Glasses Were Found Saturday At Treasure Aisle. Status: Not Cheap.
These were just pretty enough to pay retail for. That means I'm keeping them. But then, why wouldn't I? A full set of 8 with all the original packaging. Sweet find, if not a sweet deal.
Until I found them at the antique mall I had never seen the pattern before. They had them displayed in
the open box when I first saw them. I wasn't sold on them at first and walked around the rest of the
shop before I decided to buy 'em. When I came back around to the booth they were all in the box and
the box was closed up. That was weird. I wonder if someone else was preparing to buy them and just
waited a moment too long.
The pattern leans a little toward the Christmas side but I'm still down with them. They just reek of
Josh Agle's "Shag" style. I think this year we will have to have a "proper" Christmas party and maybe
make Shag the theme!
