See message forwarded from Marcus:

Quote

Thought to be German, and design based on the Schliemann? discovery of gold from Troy.
The meandros ring is common to many designs, (see Dartington "Greek Key") but the lower panel decoration has rarely been used in other countries which manufacture/ed pressed glass.
