No trips to the beach or anywhere yet. Anik and Rose: you're a little off base.

 :usd: Sue gets the prize for actually reading all the threads.  ;D :rah: :rah:

Now I get the reference to the beach in the Fazzoletto thread. What a horrible thing to happen on holiday, to happen anywhere, for that matter. It's a long recovery, if I remember. New pieces of glass definitely help speed up the recovery process.

And, yes, the fazzoletto is Tarnowiec (but don't tell anyone else).

Sue, your vases are lovely!  And I agree with you -- David's vase certainly has a Tarnowiec look to it... I think the poor guy is just confused  :usd:  Maybe someone should break it to him gently...  (I'm just teasing  :kissy:)

Slightly off topic, it's a shame that Polish (contemporary) glass is so under-rated.  I think you can find a lot of high-quality pieces -- pieces which can certainly be mistaken for 'fancier' labels.

We seem to be running out of planet for the attribution of this one. Apart from Greenland and a few other places..... any chance it is Scottish somehow, by persons of Italian descent?

Christine is right about my response to Anik. Because of an unexpected and totally out of character burst of empathy, I decided to rewrite history for Anik and call it Tarnowiec. This morning my empathy has evaporated, however. It's not Tarnowiec.

Perhaps before I get accused of simply trying to run up the number of posts I've made, I should give you a clue and show you a picture of the base.

Any comments?

 :thud:

Ok, why are you now saying it IS Tarnowiec - again? You used a double negative.
 
If you'd wanted to emphasise it's "not-ness" you should have said "it's not not not Tarnowiec". (3 nots)

then you show a chalet mark on it's bum...... :nix:

I completely agree with Anik about contemporary Polish glass not being properly recognised.
 :kissy: It's wonderful stuff!
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Earth without art is just eh.

I hope you have not just taken 3 hours to put Chalet and Canada on there with talcum powder and a tiny brush!!

A good puzzle that one, David, it looks nothing at all like Chalet!!!! The last place I would have guessed, even after Greenland, Papua etc...

well, well, well. It must have been a fleeting production!!!

Sue:

I'm so glad that I appointed you my editor a few threads ago. Typing error corrected.

Aw nuts  >:(

I thought that 'Chalet' was just too obvious, and that Rose was looking too close to home.  
Not that I want to be a sore loser or anything, but I'm not impressed -- not impressed in the least.  

P.S.  David, maybe your 'not not Tarnowiec' was not a typing error, but a sign that subliminally, you really did want me to win...  I always knew you were a sweetheart  :kissy:
