If you have a piece of glass and you are looking for an ID, I've been cataloging glass by pinned images. Check under each image and you'll see a folder link; such as, Indiana Glass or Pairpoint Glass, etc. Click on these links to go to the folders I've been creating by Glass Company. This is a work in progress and needs an administrator. Looking for a GLGD volunteer to assist with these pinnings.

These pins are listings and pictures from all around the internet. This is a guide and shouldn't be taken as deadpan proof that you have found your ID. Many blog writers, sellers, etc. copy other people's listing errors. You should always try to verify your ID with the experts before selling something on the net.

Polish Glass Mark

The following mark has been very elusive in finding it's owner but alas, I have found the manufacturer.

Violetta Crystal Glass Works
History of Violetta Crystal Glass Works

Sadly, as of July 2008, "the shareholders of the Violetta Crystal Glass Works of Stronie Śląskie have decided to wind down the company, unable to cope with growing gas and electricity prices, upward pressures on wages, and the strong złoty. 460 persons now employed by Violetta will be made redundant. The plant makes an assortment of products from blown, coated, painted, and hand-engraved glass."(1)
