Thanks a lot Pamela!
You are the best!
But i need one more help.
I don't know if i understood what is written in the catalogue, my german is not very good, i understood that they used the name "Bohemia" because of the high quality of bohemian glass, it was a way to say that the glasses produced by them were so high quality as bohemian glasses? Is this?

Cláudio, you're right - we do not know where this Bohème range was produced. The author Geiselberger presumes France, influenced by Bohemian glass works, however, his thorough investigations lead to nothing more detailed.
