One thing that has not been reproduced at least up to this point in time is the pink depression glass that is a part of this collection. The blue color however if found to be authentic has some very high value to it. Any of the 10 inch bowls in blue, with uniquely shaped edges have value well over $1000 dollars. Any Royal Lace depression glass pitchers you may find in blue as well are valued in the $400 dollar to $500 dollar range. And as always the salt and pepper shakers have high value at over $300 dollars for the blue.

All in all, there are a lot of pieces that have very high value for Royal Lace depressiong glass, and if you get a deal of $10-$30 bucks for just about any piece in any color it is worth it. MAKE SURE THAT IT IS AUTHENTIC.
