I went to a show yesterday and came across this booth. I thought some of the members here..... eh..... may enjoy seeing it.... Sorry the pics are not better, but they were taken with my phone.......
This glass had all been in boxes in a barn for about 25 years and was being offered for the first time.... all of it was still quite dirty from storage.... many of the pieces were acid marked underfoot, but the entire table appeared to be definitive chalet product collected over a long period and stored for around 25 years..... It is the most Chalet glass I have ever seen in one place....
I have to admit I could not help myself...... I bought 6 pieces...... very reasonably priced and some pieces that were a little more unusual from what I had seen..... some heavily tooled pieces, as opposed to the more generic forms I am used to coming across.....
When taken home and washed they were as striking as I assumed they would be.......
I am also attaching a pic of a table of Viking glass.... same story.... I did not buy any of it..... not my kind of glass, but again.... the most I have ever seen in one place.... and some cool pieces....
