Title: Glass engraved With Wild Boar and Highly Cut, Appreciate Identification Of Mark
Post by: meltdown on July 11, 2013, 03:45:41 PM

Hello, I am hoping somebody could help identify this glass and the backstamp for me?

I have looked on the internet but can't find any with the same marks as this, although there are many with the wild animals (not a wild boar that I can find) and with the same cut marks around the base.

There are some Moser ones around and some Queens Lace? but none have the same marks or shapes on the base or the same backstamp on the base.

If somebody could let me know who made it I would be most appreciative.

Thankyou in advance.

I had asked a question about the mark a few years ago on GMB.  This thread: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php?topic=36664.0

I think we decided they were Josephinenhuette (seems maybe sold as Josair in the US)

I think you may find something very similar to your boar in this 1970 catalog page:

Perfect!  Thank you SO much for such a speedy reply and extensive links which I would never have happened upon by chance!  I really am truly grateful for the immense amount of information you have shared with me.

I shall most certainly post again here.

I really thought I might be wasting people's time with this query,

Many, many thanks.  It's so refreshing to find a source of likeminded people pulling together and sharing information this way.

I shall definitely recommend this site to whoever will listen!!

Thank you
