4 inches tall, hollow stem and dated '95, I think, looks like 'BON' to me  ??? ;D ;D

Yes he thought Monart, they have a lot of foot wear and almost hollow, big price though. 150

yes there is a maker called Bon and it looks like Bon 95 or Bon91 to me.
I think... don't quote me on this, from memory, that they made/make reproductions.

Thanks m  ;D, it is '95 when you get a lens to it, did look up 'Bon' but couldn't find anything, I'll look again.  ;D

The following link references another 'bon' signed piece. Like M I thought they dealt largely in replicas, thought they may have cropped up on the GMB before from memory, although this is the only reference I could find online after a quick search....

Edit:
Reading through the above link 'Bon' appears to possibly be linked to Arma Bohemia, the below link shows some other of their replicas.

Old thread but Ivo said at that point that they were makers of replica pieces in Murano

see above - then I found this reference as well
http://www.stefanmitzlaff.de/work/glass/replika.html

So, I'm not sure on translating it, whether he works with Bon, or whether the site mentions Bon as another maker of replica glasses.
