PEACHRIDGE GLASS
DECEMBER 2012
A MORNING AT PEACHRIDGE
Recently I had my friend and professional photographer Steve Harris (pictured on left) spend a morning at Peachridge and photograph our various bottle rooms. Steve also works with me on select FMG Design projects where his talent is needed. I left him alone with some simple instructions…”please don’t touch”. We had two cancelled appointments prior to this session due to uncooperative weather. Third time’s the Charm.
Steve did his magic in the summer of 2012 just as he did back in 2007 (See Peachridge 2007 images) when he had the same assignment.
A small blurb from Steve’s web site states: “Steve Harris completed his schooling at Parsons School of Design, Paris, France in 1988, and embarked on a career that has taken him from the fashion industry on the streets of Paris, to the advertising community in New York City, to the top of the mountains of South America, and beyond. After relocating back to native terrain in 1992, Steve put his efforts into Commercial and Fine Art photography with a renewed passion for his craft. After paying his dues in respect to photography, he slowly built a loyal following of clients and individuals who helped pave the way to professional stability.”
I want to point out that all my solo bottle photography used on this site is done by myself unless otherwise noted. I just feel like it is fun to periodically step back and let someone else photograph your collection. Plus Steve has a gillion more pieces of photography equipment than my camera and tripod.
Those poisons are mine! U should list them as mine since I’m the only one who collects them:P
Everyone..for clarification purposes…The Poison Bottles belong to my loving granddaughter Adriana who belongs to the Antique Poison Bottle Collectors Association. I will hang a sign on them next time 🙂
Incredible…what an amazing collection and display.
You can fill the living room windows when you buy my Udolphos!
P.S. your collection is just sick. you ought to be ashamed of yourself! 🙂
Do the Wolfes say Bitters!
Really enjoyed the EXHIBITIONISTS article in Antique Bottle & Glass Collector. Send me some pictures. Want to do a headline feature on FOHBC site and PRG. Amazing…what are you missing if anything?
Will send you some pics. missing is hard to know as, there are so many variants. I do know that I have never seen a cobalt example of any size, nor a clear with a tooled or applied top. The clears are ABM. Thanks for doing an article and will get some pics ASAP.
No, the Wolfe’s don’t say bitters, but nor do Insulators or Violins. You see where I’m goin??!lol
holly macaroni!!! the colors man the colors… Love those Sachem’s Ferd, the tealish and green ones especially… wonderful collection.
