Anchor Hocking Fire King Bird Mug

September 16, 2021

In this week’s edition of Thrift Store Thursday, I’m sharing this double sided Anchor Hocking bird mug.

In this week’s edition of Thrift Store Thursday, I’m sharing this double sided Anchor Hocking bird mug.

This is a special mug that was my mom’s. In my childhood memories, I remember it sitting right up on the shelf in the kitchen, but as she is going through her items, she has given this to me to sell.

This milk glass mug is vintage from either the 1960’s or 1970’s. It’s Anchor Hocking Fire King, and the bottom says that it is ovenproof.

This holds 9.5 ounces, is just under 3.5″ tall and has a diameter of 3″.

There is a variety in this songbird line that include other birds, but this particular one has a Chickadee on one side…

… and a Cardinal on the other.

If you are local to Central Florida, you can also find this piece and more in person at America’s Antique Mall in Melbourne. Ask for seller “elk”.

How to Price Your Anchor Hocking Fire King Bird Mug

My tag says “Vintage Anchor Hocking Fire King Bird Mug”.

In search, I found that these range from $10 – $23. I priced mine at $12.

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind On Rockwood Lane and EyeLoveKnots! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.

I've been shopping for a noodle bowl with chopstick holder for my niece. I really like this design.

Black OUGES Top (aff link)

When I received this black Ouges brand top in my September Amazon Wardrobe box, I was pretty happy. I have a similar top that I received in an earlier box that is the same brand, and I love the fit of it. I think the raglan style gives me a sort of confidence. I am a 42″ bust wearing the size Medium. There are several other colors available too!

It's lip balm season, and these lip balm holders are excellent! They come on a swivel hook that can be attached anywhere for easy access, and to make sure you don't lost your lip balm at the bottom of your bag. I personally have one of these. The quality is great, and Candace is lovely to work with! PLUS they come in 11 colors!
