I could see that being Chalet. Or Murano. Or something else.  :-\

How's the arm?

Unsure about this one.
I would lean towards not Murano.
Did Chalet glass make a bubble pattern too?
Ive only seen the sommerso pieces.

I googled Chalet glass with Bubbles....see the 5th row down, center...  http://www.antiques2jewelry.com/glass_art.htm

Maybe Lorraine Glass, Alta Glass -- from Canada...  http://www.antiques2jewelry.com/glass_chalet_canada.htm

Hi:  I don't think it's Chalet or Lorraine. I haven't seen either with bubbles. It could be Scandinavian, though, or even Czech.

You might be interested in this thread, in which family members of the men who set up Chalet provide some information on Chalet. Sorrey if I've mentioned this link before.

Hi Leni -- Did U see the link above David, where I posted sites for some OLD videos on Chalet glass in Canada.  They show some Chalet glass being made, and speak to the founders.  See these I posted.....

FYI

I am aware BIRKS (Posh jewelry store) here in Canada sold Chalet, italian glass (and Murano glass) for years.

Rare Chalet Glass double marked (one being the name CHALET) and the other second mark being TWO  B's  for BIRKS (a backwards B and a forward B). 

See site below:

Just for your info...

**BUMP -- Old thread from 2008

I have taken better pics now, and will post these to see if we get any new idea, by the better pictures. The ideas passed around before were:  Murano, Chalet, Lorraine, Czech, and Scandinavian.......but the bubbles makes it a ??.  Good old wear on the base.  Any new ideas.

Thanks as always  :kissy:
