[QUOTE="toomanytocount, post: 264265, member: 5115"]@R.Antonis I did say I have seen the blue glass style and color in my Harrach book, I also showed you some museum images on that post, as well as another blue example with the same glass rim design. Biedermier is an old 19th century style of Bohemian glass, that is not anything like what you have. My expertise is the Czech Art DECO period glass of 1919-1939, so I know a little about the earlier glass products, the companies, the types of glass they made, have several books about it. It is a vast and complicated subject, which frankly is not as well documented as the UK or USA glass antique glass, and even they attributed a lot of glass in error, in the older reference books of 1980 and before. Trying to show that the topic is full of twist and turns, and there is only so much time in the day. I want to help, but I have strict limitations of my own projects and demands. [ATTACH=full]82933[/ATTACH] Here is another cabinet in the German Passau Bohemian Glass Museum, this one shows Harrach antique glass, in the white and blue type of style, shape and color. They participated in most of the Internation Exhibitions during 19th century, and made extra large pieces for those occasions. Hope this gives you more of an idea for identification. :)[/QUOTE]
