oh yes well remembered!

~The only strange difference with this is that mine also has the red label saying Barcelona.  On the Ysart site it says Pueblo espanol in Majorca.....and they only have the one silver label.

Thanks for all the info, just googled it and there is one outside Barcelona too which opened in 1929.

Pueblo Espanol is in Barcelona, not Mallorca.

Ivo is correct in what he is saying. Could the signature that is in the pattern be Royo or Cirera? If it is Cirera, it will look more like Cire...

Porrón in clear glass with prunt and label from the Poblo Espanol in Barcelona, circa 1970s.

On the Ysart site it said it ws Mallorca.  But its a group of shops so its where its made but doesnt explain the maker, there is a phone number on the label too.  I like it and the label does have a 60s or 70s appearance.

penelopepitstop, you mentioned there was a signature in the pattern. You probably missed my earlier question. Is it Royo or Cirera?

[penelopepitstop]

yes sorry I missed that.  yes the signature could say ciera

[TxSilver]

Yes, it is Cirera. This is Genis Cirera Casonovas. He lived much of his life in Barcelona, where he had a workshop. They decorated glass that I've been told was made at the Gordiola Glassworks. A large volume of his work is from the 1930s, but there was later work. I don't know what year your pitcher would have been made. If you google his name, you can learn more about him and see some of the things he made. It may help you to put a date on your glass.
