Next weekend will be a true test of the Lotton Art Glass secondary market. Early's Spring Art Glass Auction, in Cincinnati, will conduct a two day glass auction containing up to 40 pieces of Lotton Glass. I believe this is the largest consignment of the Lotton's glass that has come to auction since I’ve been following its market. Early’s catalog shows that a good cross section of the artists’ work will be represented.

Charles Lotton’s Art Glass could become the most expensive contemporary pieces being produced today. If it does, you will have a chance to profit from its rise. This auction might well indicate the market direction for the next five years for this glass. It’s my personal opinion that no other glass on the market compares with the Lottons’ work, and each piece is fashioned by the artist that signed the piece.

From Tiffany to Daum, Early’s Glass Auction will feature a wide range of fabulous pieces. In years past, this auction been a glass lover’s paradise and attended by the most important people in the Art Glass Industry today. Lot numbers 575 and 585 will be items I’ve personally entered into the sale. The first is a Daum Nancy French Cameo Lamp and the second is a very old Vase with some very slight damage. These have been a part of my personal collection for many years, and I am certain they will meet the buying criteria set forth in my book, “31 Steps to Your Millions in Antiques & Collectibles.”

In conjuction with Early’s Auction, The Lotton Glass Club Annual Meeting will be held in Cincinnati Thursday, April 10th, prior to the auction and will once again, have the honor of Charles Lotton appearing to speak before the club. If it’s possible to attend this event, be sure to make your reservations. Warner Smith, President of Lotton Glass Club will make introductions and present some Lotton Glass from his own personal collection.
