Historical Glass Museum

The Museum is housed in a 1903 Victorian style home in the picturesque city of Redlands, California. The house at 1157 Orange is the former home of Emma Cryer, daughter of early Redland's settlers Jerome E. and Martha Seymour, and is an historic structure. Although the house was in bad repair, it has been completely renovated and brought up to modern code. All repairs and improvements have been paid for by Museum members and friends through donations and fund raising activities. The museum opened its doors to the public in July, 1985, after nine years of fundraising, volunteer labor, and contracted work. The glass has been donated by Museum members and friends. Currently, the Museum holds displays of American Glassware dating from the early 1800's to contemporary times. Displays include, but are not limited to, glass from Heisey, Cambridge, Fenton, Fostoria, and Sandwich factories as well as those that produced depression-era glassware. Items on display include candlesticks, compotes, milk glass, stems, bowls, historical plates, salts, kerosene lamps-and even several items from the estate of Liberace.
