Glen:
I'd like to share with everyone who is interested in pressed glass, deco style or Carnival, a major catalogue discovery.

The country is Poland. The glass maker was Hortensja.

:shock: Wow, Glen, how exciting. I can't wait to read more!

Great article, really enlightening. Thank you :!:  :)

Lustrousstone:
Fascinating Glen. The Palm Tree caught my eye particularly as it's often seen in green uranium. Now I need to confirm that it's exactly the same palm tree

Glen:
Della, many thanks  :D

Christine, I'm most interested to know if the Vaseline Palm Tree is theirs. I have seen what I feel could well be Hortensja items in vaseline, but your comment will help to firm this up (or not).

Tony, thanks, and yes, yes I do think that it's highly likely they made Diana and all the other frosted/golden patterns like Eureka Cross. (Your Beverley Crystal, Poland sticker is a great additional piece of evidence, by the way). I will post more catalogue extracts as soon as I can do them. We may have to make some attributions through circumstantial evidence (and cautiously attribute, rather than firmly attribute), until we get proof positive with maybe another catalogue or two. I look forward to seeing your photos.

Glen
