About: The Higbee Glass Plant produced glass tableware in this area from 1907 through 1918 at which time General Electric purchased it, primarily to manufacture light bulbs.
J. B. Higbee Company produced a remarkable variety of glass tableware in at least a dozen ditterent patterns.
They were sold in Higbee stores in Pittsburgh and New York and by catalogue. Each pattern was patented, preventing any competitor from copying it.
We also believe these to be EAPG (Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG for short) is clear or coloured pressed glass made from around 1850 until about 1914 in matched sets.
Machines for pressing glass were invented in the 1820s, but it was not until the 1860's that they were improved enough to mass produce matched table services)
