Hi, I just got this.  Can anyone ID.  Thanks in advance...

[Carolyn Preston]

I could see that being Chalet. Or Murano. Or something else. 

How's the arm?

Unsure about this one.
I would lean towards not Murano.
Did Chalet glass make a bubble pattern too?
Ive only seen the sommerso pieces.

I googled Chalet glass with Bubbles....see the 5th row down, center...  http://www.antiques2jewelry.com/glass_art.htm

Maybe Lorraine Glass, Alta Glass -- from Canada...  http://www.antiques2jewelry.com/glass_chalet_canada.htm

Hi:  I don't think it's Chalet or Lorraine. I haven't seen either with bubbles. It could be Scandinavian, though, or even Czech.

You might be interested in this thread, in which family members of the men who set up Chalet provide some information on Chalet. Sorrey if I've mentioned this link before.

FYI

I am aware BIRKS (Posh jewelry store) here in Canada sold Chalet, italian glass (and Murano glass) for years.

Rare Chalet Glass double marked (one being the name CHALET) and the other second mark being TWO  B's  for BIRKS (a backwards B and a forward B). 

See site below:
