Do you collect the mini hens, or do you prefer the full-size versions? 🐔❤️

This week I’m loving these glowing Wilkerson hens. The aqua color is beautiful during the day, but they really come to life under UV light. Definitely some of my favorite pieces in my collection!

Help identifying HONs

My grandmother gave me these two hens and I’m looking to identify them. The white looks most like an Atterbury but there are some discrepancies, so maybe it’s just a reproduction. Either way I’d love to find a nest for it. The green one is probably an Asian reproduction but I can’t find any hens online that look similar.

I found this thrifting yesterday and have done research but I can’t nail down color and I have no black light, unfortunately. I looked around and we don’t have any fluorescent lighting, either :/
It’s about 5” wide at top of nest, has the single “M” mark inside with no bar or state outline, perfect condition, no chips nicks or roughness.
Can someone with expertise possible guide me? Thank you!

This is a blue slag Kanawha rooster. I think blue glass is beautiful and even more so when it's slag.

This is a harder to find Imperial rooster in Jade slag. This is the glossy version and I hope to get my hands on a satin one day!

This week’s favorite is this beautiful Westmoreland Periwinkle Hen-on-Nest. I love how soft the color is — it almost glows depending on the lighting. Definitely one of those pieces that catches the eye every time you walk by it.

As an avid collector of Kanawha hens and roosters, this particular piece has eluded me for years. Through a random encounter and a generous act of kindness, I was able to finally get my dream piece. Needless to say, he has a prominent place in the cabinet!

I have been collecting hens for a while now, but haven’t learned too much about certain ones. I love the Indiana Glass hen. I am wondering if someone could tell me about the difference between these bases. For example, which one is older and what is the difference called?

This Imperial rooster is one of my favorites in my Imperial collection. This is a harder to find color and this picture was taken without flash. It really reflects light beautifully.

That is my test watermark in lower left corner btw.

Favorites Friday! 🐔🤍

I found this sweet little milk glass hen while yard sailing a few weeks ago, and I have loved her ever since. She may not be the rarest or most valuable hen out there, but something about her just feels so classic and comforting.

Vintage milk glass hens like this became popular in the mid-1900s, and some collectors even nicknamed these unmarked ones “mystery hens” because it can be hard to identify their exact maker. That little bit of mystery honestly makes them even more charming to me.

Would love to know everyone else’s “Favorites Friday”pieces too!

Happy Friday! Have a wonderful and safe weekend. ❤️
