This was the second piece that my guy bought at last Friday’s auction.  I don’t recognize the etch.  The stem has an interesting twist to it.  I have to hit the books to track down glass manufacturers’ shapes.  Between gardening and my new guitar lessons, I’ve been falling behind on my glass research!  What’s with that?????

Every so often my guy goes to auctions.  He went Friday and I wish I had been able to go because it sounded like lots of neat things were up for grabs.  Likely just as well that I didn’t go actually.

In any event he came home with a few things for me, including two of these stems.  I haven’t yet looked through my books to see if I can determine the manufacturer.

These glasses are of particular interest because there are cuts in the stem itself – like a little sprig.  I have not seen that before.  I hope you can see them in the last photo.  Adds a certain flair to the stem!

I’ll update this post if I determine the provenance, unless someone out there knows the secret identity of this glass and is willing to share!
