Family haul of Irish glass for auction

A collection of Irish glass which has passed through five generations of the family who started the glass industry in Waterford 230 years ago is going up for auction next week.

And a 200-year-old wooden cabinet decorated with seashells could fetch more than €10,000 at this upcoming auction.

The decanters, scent bottles, glasses and other items were all once owned by members of the Penrose family.
