pamela:
some thoughts regarding that unknown blue butterfly vase with FAIT EN BELGIQUE mark:

this vase looks VERY Brockwitz'ish

as far as I know anybody has ever seen or handled the item no. 6941 shown in Brockwitz' 1941 catalogue

Brockwitz was closed in 1941 which means that a mould for this design possibly was never manufactured

about 10 years ago, I was informed by Belgian collectors that glass 'FAIT EN BELGIQUE' is most likely originating from Verreries de Scailmont Manage - unfortunately corresponding pages/links have expired and are no longer available

Question: Is this blue butterfly vase an amended Brockwitz produced by Scailmont?

pamela:
Jay, should you need better photos of any of the above, please let me know.

@all: I appreciate your thoughts!  :-*

Pamela, thanks for so much effort. I'll tabulate them and do some html and then I think we will have a very interesting insight.

The mark 'Pavillions' is completely unknown in literature, and quite special information, since we know of NO genuine mark from this factory (i.e. Pavillions á Beignée (Manage)). It could be a vital clue, so a photo of that mark would be very useful! We have little info about the factory, and cannot immediately exclude the possibility that they are 'players' in this story.

I also talked to both Ann P and Eliane B, from which some more clues have been found.

In general I think all are agreed that, despite the variation in the markings, these are all examples from a single source, made during a longish period. (and no evidence it was in Belgium)

Although we all suspect the culprit, there is now a chance that we can actually prove it! (I'm chasing after that story, now...)

Once I can get all the information online as a draft, I will post the link here for you (all)
