4. Peacock at the Fountain Ruffled Punch Set in Aqua Opal – $140,000

Auctioneer’s Description: Northwood butterscotch aqua opal Peacock at the Fountain 5 piece punch set. Has deep rich butterscotch irid. on this very rare set. Yes this set comes with three cups, that is how the set has been for over 70 years and we are not going to be the ones to break it up. To be accurate, this set has a tiny TINY rub on one flute. The history: this set has been in the family since the early 1920’s. The set was acquired in Corning NY at a grocery store by trading in coffee points (similar to S&H stamps). When grandma passed, she passed the set to her daughter in the early 1970’s. She placed the set on top of the console television and it was never touched or washed until just recently. When the daughter passed, the son and daughter inherited the set and this is when they discovered that they may have a treasure! It was not until a couple of months ago that we met up with the family in a McDonald’s parking lot in Salamanca NY to verify what they did indeed have. Bottom line, this set has never been traded for money and has been in the same family since the early 1920’s. It is now being offered to you 100 years later at public auction with no reserve.
