Thanks for all the help this week, this is the last of the dusty closet finds.

This decanter and liqueur set features a Daum style glue chip finish.  Nicely done in bright crystal with polished pontil ring on the decanter and flat polished bases / top rims on the glasses.  Decanter is 9 3/4" high, 5" high.  The liqueurs are 2 1/2" high and 2 3/8" wide. 

Thanks for any ideas you might have about this set.

I knew this was going to be a long shot. 

Other than Daum and Kralik, does anybody know other companies which did this type glue chip technique.  I don't believe it's a studio piece so it would have to be production line by a larger glassworks.  I can't find any reference to Scandinavian producers, although the forms have that look.

Hope y'all have a great Thanksgiving, we're hunkered down in Covid hell, with no kids or grandkids.  2021 can't come quick enough.

The board is quiet at the moment but hopefully someone will be along to help.

Are the glasses stable?  They look to have quite a slim stem and look as though they might be knocked over quite easily?

The shape of the glasses always makes me think of Belgian or Dutch glass first.  I have no basis for that observation at all btw, just where I would be looking if it were me for some reason. 

Is it glue chip? or is it a mold blown decor?  I can't tell.  What do you think?

Thanks for the thoughts.

The glasses are surprisingly stable with the flat polished base, although you're right they look a little iffy.

Sorry the pictures aren't clearer, definitely glue chip.

I had the same initial feeling, looked more Scandinavian or Danish in form.  Just couldn't find any companies doing glue chip from those areas, I'll keep looking.

Again thanks,  off to brine my turkey for two, argh!
