I believe that you are referring to the 1876 Cape Cod Collection that Avon produced some years ago. This was a collection that consisted of wine goblets, mugs, dinner plates, dessert plates, candleholders, and other pieces. It was made of early American pressed glass also known as "Sandwich Glass." It was a ruby red color. I hope that this answers your question.
The Avon Cape Cod Collection glassware is a discontinued line of ruby red glass that is made to resemble sandwich glass. The glassware is very heavy and has a diamond and circle pattern carved into it.
Avon glass is glass collectibles that were distributed by Avon. Some were perfume containers or cologne containers. Some are rare and valuable today.
Avon ruby red glassware can be a profitable collectible, especially if it is vintage or part of a limited collection. The value will depend on factors such as the condition, rarity, and demand among collectors. It's advisable to research current market trends and consult with experts before investing in Avon ruby red glassware.
What is Avon red glass #44 Decanter # 16 Vase worth
The rubies used to create fissure-filled stones are generally of very low quality. This kind of ruby is usually made more porous with an acid treatment. Then it is heated with other materials that make glass when the ruby gets hot enough. The glass fills in pits in the ruby. Therefore, parts of the stone are ruby, but parts are actually glass. Whether you consider this ruby "real" is up to you since parts are ruby, but depending on the size of the fissures that are filled, a significant part of the stone can be glass. The stones can be pretty, but glass does not have the same properties or hardness of a ruby.

There is not a definitive value for antique red glass. There are not only differing prices for when the glass was created, but what shade of red they are, such as ruby or cranberry.
Most of Avon's glassware is selling for around $10 per unit, however there are some valuable collections that have sold for over $100, for instance a full ruby red dish collection was sold at auction for nearly $300.
