  Thanks Anik! :kissy:

                       Oddly I had Suspected it might be a piece by Frantisek Vizner, but couldn't find anything like it in the resources I have that cover Czech Glass ( I have a friend who Usually ID's Czech for me, but he's in the States till December!and its out of my comfort zone) So I was pleased and suprised to find out that Ladena Viznerova was Frantisek Vizners first wife, and that she designed very much in the same style as him! Whew!!! that was a relief!

 Again, My heartfelt thanks Anik.


      Warmest Wishes,

          John

  LOL!!! to be fair it was one and a half days!!! I have a regular route I follow and often visit up to 30 establishments a DAY!!! quite a few of them I have a good relationship with and they will keep items back for me that they think I may be interested in. I also have six sisters who look out at boot fairs,charity shops and Jumble sales in their parts of the country.


                 Warmest Wishes,
