One from me -- not really themed, just more or less cylindrical shapes.
Mostly Tamara Aladin, mixed with 2 of my best Czech pieces, plus 1 Murano (at least we assumed that here on the GMB

Thanks for looking,
Michael

Thank you very much, Steph!
The blue one on the right is a Pavel Hlava design for Novy Bor, one of my favourites

Leni's lovely amber schmetterling (around page 24) inspired this weeks tribute...

Cheers

I thought you might be amused by this.. We're having half of the house extended (including installing glass cabinets and shelves along a very large wall), and have had to clear out all of the furniture from that section. I packed up most of the glass into strong crystal boxes (about forty of them), but then was left with the melon ribs, some of which were so big that each would occupy a box on their own. The smaller pieces, about half the collection, are in a couple of boxes, but I just couldn't bring myself to package all the larger ones up! So, I've packed up most of our kitchen ware, moved the cups, plates and bowls and shifted half of the melon ribs into the kitchen cupboards. Priorities!

Though I would throw this up. This is my display on my TV unit in the bedroom. Dino Martens and Archimede Seguso with of course, a bulli bowl LOL...

Also a shot of a side table in the dining area...

No real theme...is generally just stuff I have bought over the past few months which will eventually get replaced with new stuff... :24:

The big plate is French from the late 60's/70's...it did have a box but no more...

I recovered it from a demolition site on a rainy day...

Since it's the first of May, I changed my front display with a number of vases where cutting techniques were used (or at least - I think they were cut in some fashion. I'm not entirely sure whether the two frosted-and-clear ones (probably Nachtmann) were (hand)cut or not).

Still musing on a good name. 'No cuts no glory' perhaps, or I'll just stuck with 'the cut glass display'.
