Title: Made in Czechoslovakia (Decanter) with Label (Who??)
Post by: antiquerose123 on June 04, 2011, 07:33:37 PM
 :hi: there:

I just bought this about an hour ago.  Large amber colored Decanter with stopper (no glasses  :cry: ).  It is about 14.25 inches tall, and about 4 inches wide at the widest point.  There is a label on it (Gold and yellow Foil) in an oval shape.  The oval shape has like *4 little thorns* on it, in the inside.

Anyone know the maker of this?  Whose label it is?  And the age of course...

These Czech decanter with gold on them -- is this Gold Gilt? Or is that the correct definition of it.  It was a $2.00 purchase, so I am  ;D or I think I should be!! 

Thanks for any assistance!!  :kissy:

Hi,

think these are Borske Sklo from the 50s/60s. There's some similar decorated with gilt in Mark Hills Hi Sklo Lo Sklo. Sure someone will confirm soon.

Just to agree with Greg.  Quite a few of this style made it to Canada, Rose, so don't be surprised to find more, often with the Belfor label on them.

Thanks All --- and I am getting a small collection of them.  They seem to be very abundant here.  Guess every home had them in their day.....as it was the style then.  I like these, and like I said, getting a small collection of them now (about 10 maybe).

This was just a different label than I had seen before, so another reason to purchase the item (plus it was Cheap)....bought this from the same place (and lady) as I bought the Kosta Boda item.........lol......her loss, my gain!!   ;)
