Glass pattern is "Sass III" un-named but standard engraving... cost about 10 DM in 1968

Probably wrong name, certainly spelled incorrectly. They seemed to named services not engraving designs in their catalogue, your pattern is described only as radgravur. (Intaglio or wheel engraved). Quick Google seems to confirm Connoisseur was a range.
