Topic: Nason ? funky chicken ID = Loetz (!)

[Lustrousstone]

This is just great: a water jug and six glasses. The green is uranium and the body is a semi-transparent white (like steamed up clear glass). I wondered if it was Nason. What does anyone else think please?

I've seen the pitcher many times, but can't remember who the maker is. I hope you're able to find it in your books, jp. I searched online, but couldn't find it.

For some reason the letter B sits in the back of my tiny brain ,  B Boda  Bertil Vallien yes i know thats Skandi
 B Barovier the style of handle . The metal or glass mix i have seen in glass from both of these . sorry for the confusion blame a large liquid lunch with no food . :rn: :24: :spls: :pb:

The things that came to my head were Carlo Moretti, Galliano Ferro, and Fratelli Toso. Of course, that doesn't mean that any of them made it. It is not a common pitcher, but there are a few out there. I've always liked them. They are finely worked, even though they don't look serious.

I do not know who it is, but saw one on ebay recently with an attribution and I can not find it now.... I also can not remember what the attribution was....  not that I would necessarily believe the attribution... but they may have known....

I really like the set....  the listing had no glasses with it......

I saw one of these sets today at the National Glass Fair being sold by Andrew Lineham. He was adamant it was Loetz. It had a £400 plus price tag. Needless to say, I thought I'd manage with just the one set. What does anyone else think.
