CORONET trade mark CZECH but who?
Glen:
Does anyone know which Czech company used a gold paper label on glassware with TRADE MARK CORONET on it? I know it's Czech as the vase it is on has Czechoslovakia etched on it

Up to now Glen, this is all I can find out.
--- Quote ---Coronet trademark, which is a stamp of a crown inside a laurel wreath. Above the crown is written "Trademark" and below the Crown "Coronet." This trademark was registered to Geo. Borgfeldt & Co., a major U.S. importer located in New York City

In UK c1950 the word Coronet belonged to potters Parrott & Co so the US impoter seems most probable but what date period are you looking at?
Glen:
The item the sticker is on is a blow moulded deco style vase. I would guess late 1920s - 1930s era. It is similar to several other Carnival vases. We don't know who made them - the only facts I have are the acid stamp on the base (Czech) and this Coronet label.
Looks like Della is on the right trail. We bought the vase some years ago from a US auctioneer who was based in New York State.
THANK YOU both for your help, Della and Frank.

Hi Glen,
George Borgfeldt & Co were a registered business in 1930. They started before this date, but I can only find this one link, so far.
They were China, Glass and Earthenware, Importers and Wholesale dealers;

So, that would fit in with the dates that you suspect.
I can't find out the names of any companies that they imported from.
Sorry. :cry:
