Hospodka or other
« on: May 24, 2010, 03:48:54 PM »
When I first saw this I instantly thought of hospodka.  Am I on the right or wrong line?

This piece does not look Czech/Czechoslovakian to me. The bottom is not flat.

Margi I don't know if it might be, but have you searched for Chalet glass on here?  they did make similar items if I recall and someone posted a fantastic link to Chalet glass or about them.

Thanks M I hadn't looked on here because when I typed in Chalet in the search box it didn't throw anything back.  However, I did look at lots of other images of Chalet and whilst there is similarities they all appeared to have a flat base.  Mine rest on the four lobes but there is a small flat area on one of the lobes to balance it back out.  I thought I found a mark but it was a little crease very minute.  I saw a similar but also very different if that makes sense on Mark Hills blogspot

If you do a search on here for Chalet, you are likely to find several message threads. I believe it was Antique Rose that posted the site.

Definitely not Chalet. Michel Blais has a site with Chalet on it. He has a huge collection of Chalet and has just opened a new gallery in Vancouver, BC. Some of the pieces he has are Czech so be careful. The other links are below.

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
