HISTORY: The Hocking Glass Company was formally incorporated on November 2, 1905, with Isaac James Collins as the first President, he remained in this position for 40 years.
Initially Hocking made opal and white milk glass products. In 1910 they began producing clear glass. In a move to dominate the glass-making industry during the 1920-30s Hocking invented machinery that revolutionized glass forming. Hocking turned its focus to colored glass during the Depression era from 1929-1941. During this time Hocking became ta manufacturing leader by offering colored dinnerware. By 1937, following several years of mergers and acquisitions, Hocking was well established as THE global leader in glass manufacturing. Currently known as the Anchor Hocking Glass Corporation, the company continues to provide the world with high-quality, affordable glassware.

About me: When I retired from the corporate world in January 2022, I needed something to keep myself busy and active. During Covid, I started vintage glass treasure-hunting as a hobby and loved it so much that it felt natural to expand into a retail shop to share my finds with others. I was inspired by how online shop owners are nationally and internationally disbursed. The buying and selling marketplace here at District is the perfect opportunity to find treasures you wouldn't normally find in your backyard. I named my shop in honor of my beloved late grandmother Della, who was my first mother. I miss you, Grandma!
