Borske sklo - Nemo - WARNING
« on: June 27, 2010, 03:24:24 PM »
Dear Czechoslovakian glass friends.
I have visited glass fest in Novy Bor yesterday. I found that "Nemo" collection in very ugly form is still produced by re-opened Crystalex.
(prices in Kc - 1 GBP is aproximately 30 Kc)

More pictures here:

Sorry about is, sorry about Czech glass, Crystalex probably has found the shortcut to the ass...

Oh dear, Jindrich...  The title you gave to your pictures -- "Konec českého sklářství" -- is very, very dark and gloomy :(

Maybe things will get better.

Hi Anik, I am sure you understand Czech, I also understand written Polish.

The caption "Konec českého sklářství" (The end of Czech glassmaking) was intendended rather like a warning or message to our Czech glass producers. It is absolutely clear that this way is way to hell. Crystalex is dead, I am afraid. Possibly it is chance for other Novy Bor companies like Ajeto glass (www.ajetoglass.com) to continue in quality glass production.
