Because Holmegaard isn't confusing enough.

Pinkspoons:
I think you're right, and Gemtex is/was a distributer/importer. But the colour, according to the photographs anyway, probably discounts Holmegaard as their smoked glass has always had a heavy green tint to it, rather than purple.

Pinkspoons:
I found a Gemtex Overseas, based in India, who manufacture/export handmade glassware and crystal...

Possibly the same folk, relocated?  :lol:

Sklounion:
Gematex are possibly defunct, but there exist 4 candidates, of which 1 is swiss, and the other three east european. (Kompass)

Anne:
The listing actually says Genatex not Gemtex.  Googling for Genatex gives results for reinforced PVC - used especially for covering slurry tanks & sileage - not the same thing at all! :roll:

The label, however says Gematex... adding even more confusion!!!  :?

I think  that as the label says Handmade for Gematex in Sweden we are looking at glasses made by one of the Swedish glasshouses for an exporter/wholesaler/distributor called Gematex; or for someone who used Gematex as their trade name or collection identity.

Pinkspoons:
:oops:

Gematex... yes...

I've already used my it's a Sunday stupidity get-out clause, haven't I?  :D
