Chris, that site has been defunct for well over a year, I believe.
Quite unfortunate.

For pressed glass ID, you can take a look at the Sklo Union Sales site: http://sklo-union-glass.com/
and of course, at Jindrich's site (under 'lisovane sklo'): http://www.cs-sklo.cz/

Thanks Anik, I found a really nice piece today and was just having a look round to see if I could find it.

I feel a bit embarrassed when I look at how the thread started. I was oblivious to the one item one post rule at the time. Saying that I am still no further with an ID to my egg shaped paperweights. I have two, one in neodymium on in a kind of green/blue. I had the chance of one in clear glass but wasn't quick enough. Ah well ... I have much come to the conclusion 'buy what you really like'. OK I buy stuff cheaply that I know is worth more, but that is only occasionally (saying that I have had a good run recently). It's nice to get an ID but like with these paperweights I will always treasure what looks good for its own sake. I have a bowl that I posted and most people thought wasn't that good. But I love it, it gives me a tingle when I pass it. However for research sakes it is great to pin stuff down, it opens up whole new areas.

BTW the Crystalex vase was at my folks house and my Mum gave it to charity LOL easy come easy go as they say.
