Featured Glassies, I about plotzed !

You all know how i love a pair,and when I spotted these I couldnt dash fast enough. Then to find them in perfect condition with nary a chip ? Must have ! Love the amethyst color,love how they are the same but not identical,just love ! Most think its Murano,one thought it Czech but I lean Murano. I was shopping for Xmas secret Santa but Ive never been one to deprive myself. Arent they gorgeous ? Any input is always appreciated.

 

They were some random air mail tags. I have no idea why . That Krosno is an interesting lead. Thank you !

 

Carpathian Art Glass I think. Had a quite similar bowl recently in different colors.

Zorza also made these with clear edge design:

Yet another example to muddy the water ! Thank you TallCakes ! Since you are THE expert,any opinions on who ?

 

Johnny, please do not plotz in the Yiddish meaning….

 

I wonder if the color is any clue? Black and pink probably means post 1990s.

They are seriously cool! Interesting there were two. For candles?

 

Far too big for candles.

 

Oh god,did I curse or something ???

 

No, it is usually used in Yiddish similar to eek oh no, for lack of better translation. Then again my family spoke Yiddish when they did not want the kids to understand what they were saying. In English it has similiar meaning but can also be used as an excitement term. Sometimes my head goes back to my childhood with that word! In German it means sit. It was the one of the first things my middle grandson said to me in what we call Englgerm (they are bi-lingual) they learned English first. Then German, although they live in Germany.

 

Thank goodness it wasnt a filthy word ! Blame Mel Brooks,Zero Mostel,Shecky Greene,etc .

 

LOL.. my family also spoke Yiddish when they didn't want us kids to know what they were saying. I caught on to some of it, but with grandparents and parents gone, it sort of went out the window unless I have a friend who knows what I mean when I use a Jewish expression.

 

Oh @johnnycb09 it can mean to for lack of better words something that makes you drop dead, I just wouldn’t want you doing that , who else would I send cookies too with someone who enjoys the marshmallows!

@pearlsnblume I was lucky enough to have my Grandmother into my 30’s, her baby sister into my 40’s, with my daughter in law being German I never lost what I learned. Which I am grateful for. My Grandmother picked the habit back up when my kids were young with me!
