Sklounion:
Should anyone be researching Duralex, there is this academic thesis that may be of interest:
VILLACROUX (Olivier).- La verrerie de la Chapelle-Saint-Mesmin, ou l'histoire d'un produit, le Duralex. (1934-1969).- Tours, 1998.- Dir. J.F.ECK.
Regards,
Marcus

Sklounion:
Glen,
verre trempe, (with accent on final e) = hardened glass, the production of which had started in the mid-thirties, at La Chappelle....
also known as "Duralex".....

Marcus

Glen:
