Hi
Your spelling was correct, the person I sold to told me this hope it is of some help
Hi Roy,
Yes you have sold to me on a couple of occasions, and you used to email me with some questions about French glass before that.
The name is Arrers, and I don't know anything more than that they were making those hazelnut bowls and small bowls - fruit sets? - around the 1930's It's a bit like G Vallon - the pieces are very familiar, but no-one knows much about the maker. I think the reason that they are not known about is because at that time the manufacture of Opalescent glass was centered in France, and many small glassworks sprang up around the main ones of Lalique, Sabino, Etling, etc., riding on the market that they had created, and as quickly disappeared when the market changed.
I have moved quite a few pieces of Arrers over this last year I still have a large bowl and four small ones. A couple of the small ones were sold last week on eBay on eBay.fr as well. It is a very pretty pattern, and the pattern looks as though the moulds were made by the greatest mould maker of the time - Frankenhauser, or a name like that - I am not too good at remembering names. He, the mould maker made a lot of the moulds for Lalique, Etling, Hunebelle, etc.
I am finding the market in French Opal glass is not very good at the moment, so I am holding onto my glass, and indulging in another passion, collecting coins.
Kind regards
Robert
