Yes, Craig, I got that bit!  :kissy:
Yes John, I know about the difference between float and drawn - it was just having them suddenly appear, kind of out of context, in part sentences that confused me.
And I'm still confused - is the drawn glass from Poland or is it polished?

So what is being sought is a design used on flat sheet glass, rather than a cut used on drinkinng glasses?

Could they have said 'Reamy' instead..?

Reamy
''Descriptive of Full-Antique glass with a wavy irregular surface.''

Yes, well done guys.  Great detective work. :thup:

I would have had no idea -- the *only* thing I could think of was since they said for an "Antique Remy..."   I was thinking that they might have meant *Antique Reamer* like THIS     but had called it by the wrong name, or just a different name.  That would have been the only thing to cross my mind.

So Great Detective work to all  :thup:
