Iridescent glass dishes, acid-etched 'Allemagne'

<< < (2/3) > >>

David E:
Post war bought in many restrictions on exported goods from Germany. Items imported into Britain had to be marked Made in Germany, so perhaps the same applied in France.

BlueOctopus:

David E:
Allemagne is the French word for 'Germany'. That is what is acid-etched to the base - look more closely.

flying free:
Fritz Heckert iridescent glass has this very faint crackle effect in it.

David E:
Thanks M. Had a look, but I can't really see any Fritz Heckert (or Josephinenhütte) glass with this finish or shape - perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places!
Another thought: presumably it was post-World War I, but were they acid-etching marks to its exported glass? I always think of this as a measure bought in after WWII, when the company had already closed down.
