Title: Found one like mine - but don't know what it is
Post by: deco.queen on June 26, 2008, 11:45:45 PM

I didn't know what to put for the subject!  I found this site http://www.buntglas-hamburg.de/index.php?option=com_ponygallery&Itemid=26&func=detail&id=189 (http://www.buntglas-hamburg.de/index.php?option=com_ponygallery&Itemid=26&func=detail&id=189) which has a cup that looks a lot like mine but there is no name on it for me to look further.  If anyone can figure out a maker I'll investigate further, this is the first piece that looks like mine.  Mine are cut in a grape pattern with a fence type line and cross bars. 

I am impressed every time I stop in by the knowledge of glass here.  What a terrific site!  Thanks again for looking!

Janice, could it be a punch cup?

It sure could and that link shows something that could hold punch.  I don't understand why the link doesn't have any name with the nice glass pictured.  :huh:  Or maybe they don't know who made that set either.  :spls:

Oops I didn't check the link Janice, I just looked at your cup picture.   :-[  Yes I'd say a punch set or a gluhwein set.

That's Pamela's friend's site and I think if she knew the answer she would have put it. I think you are looking at Germany, Czechoslovakia or the Netherlands. Punch sets crop up up a lot in that part of the world. I assume the lidded ones are for gluhwein - the lid would help keep the heat in.
