Hi glass friends, could you please have a look at this:





Diameter: 23 cm

Any ideas about the maker and time?

Keith, Not sure its from the same stable as Cellophane, a bit plainer, more tortoiseshell.
a page of cellophane here,

Ive got a couple, this one just seems a bit different.

Not much help really, as we dont know who made any of them!  ;D

I've just today picked up a very similar looking vase with a label... which reads:

Quote
© TWO'S
COMPANY
MT. VERNON, NY 10550     MADE IN INDIA

I presume that Two's Company are either an importer and/or a retailer in Mount Vernon, no idea by whom the glass was made in India though.

I think both...retailer who imports as they do a lot of gift shows & have catalogs & you can search for glass.

Thanks Ken. I'm going to poke around and see if I can find more on glass made in India now. It''s an area of production I know zilch about!
