Wonder if they might be Kralik? Perhaps Craig knows more...
Meanwhile have a look at this gorgeous web-album:

Less common in the Uranium glass.... Fabulous glasses

Similar shape glasses in this set.

Post by: obscurities on October 05, 2010, 03:53:27 PM: My pleasure ........

I would add that I have never seen a full set in this decor / color combination, and have likely only seen a half dozen or so examples of pieces in this color combination...... They are quite striking.....

Post by: Paul S. on October 05, 2010, 08:19:01 PM: just as a matter of interest .........Ruth A. Forsythe ("Made in Czechoslovakia") - shows a single tumbler in the same design/pattern as Craig's - which she describes as '5" tumbler. green overlay, blue threading' (page 57) - although she doesn't attribute the piece to any particular factory. Also on the same page are a couple of vases that, whilst nowhere near as stunning as Jindrich's, do show the same direction of pattern with this red trailing coming up in thread like form. There are other pieces in the book that show this very attractive pulled colouring - and I suspect one or two pieces in U. glass - although presumably Forsythe didn't have access to a uv torch in 1982.
I shall be envious of whoever gets the red/uranium tumblers, they are stunning.
