Today's theme for City Daily Photo is GLASS. At Greensboro Daily Photo, we love to photograph glass, so this photo is entered in the CDP theme day. Click here to view thumbnails for all participants. The first of these three pears was made by Rainbow Glass in West Virginia. The other two are from WV but do not have stickers.
While North Carolina is not known for glass blowing, we are famous for the selling of glass treasures on the secondary market. Replacements, Ltd. located at 1089 Knox Road, in Greensboro, is known worldwide for its offering of glassware and china, old and new. With an inventory of 13 million pieces, likely Replacements has glass like these pears available for sale!
Glad to see you found the theme day instructions! It's not a contest, by the way ;)
I love your choice — it's fun! I, for one, would love to see your other glass photos. And that Replacements Inc. sounds like a treasure house!

What a cool post for the Glass Theme Day. I love those glass pears - they almost look edible. Nothing like a ripe pear!!!

beautiful photos of scrumptious objects. And interesting the books too. I loved your Apple posting yesterday. Wish we had one in Menton!
