This is another excellent example of the use of the internet at its best - doing what it was originally envisaged to do ... providing shared information for all who may be interested.

Well done. :D

Kev, you are right. Absolutely right.

Hats off to J.C.R. Licklider and Tim Berners-Lee. How often do we stop and think about the invention of the internet. The availability and easy exchange of information has been a revelation for glass research.

I believe Inwald did Carnival too.

Sue - yes Inwald made a lot of Carnival - as did Rindskopf (both Czech manufacturers). But Kralik was totally unexpected - and such a fabulously elegant set too. And you have to love that golden label. :lol:

You are very, very welcome.

I can't think of a better way to express my gratitude.   :)

Thanks Anne E. B. & Sue. I think it is quite appropriate :lol:
