      I thought maybe Murano or Fenton but that might be too obvious. Probably something more obscure like Waterford!

      I OFFICIALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN IT COMES TO GLASS!!
    2. AmberRose AmberRose, 11 years ago
      I saw one of these big eyed bird the other day...what did it say...
    3. mikelv85 mikelv85, 11 years ago
      Let's see..........If it's not the obvious Murano "bullicante" glass then maybe it's Swedish in origin ??
    4. SEAN68 SEAN68, 11 years ago
      very nice!!
    5. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      # 1 -- Nope
      # 2 -- Nope
      # 3 -- Nope
      # 4 -- Thanks

      So I am seeing IF you can figure it out by the Pictures of this one. It is about 5 inches tall, and 3.5 inches wide. All I can tell you it is Green. See if you know...

      Good Luck at your Guesses.....lol
    6. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      # 6 -- Nope
    7. Hedgewalker Hedgewalker, 11 years ago
      Whitefriars ?
    8. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      # 8 -- Nope
      # 9 -- Nope
    9. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      # 11 -- Yup.....I will say the label is Diamond Shape. Black with gold print
    10. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      As far as I know, as there used to be a Super Site for this maker....but it is gone. This was there.....then....
    11. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      # 15 -- Nope, I will give a hint. Starts with an *A*
    12. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      LOL.....Okay, I will give the answer in 10 - 15 minutes here.

      Some more time to rack your Brain...LOL
    13. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      # 19 -- Nope, you can change your name to *ikeepthinking*
      # 20 -- Nope...

      Another hint, next letter of name...

      Al
    14. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      But your trying, and that is what your name says about you.....LOL

      I guess you do not have one from this maker in your collection
    15. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      Answer shortly

      10.....
      9.........

      4............................
    18. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      #29 -- Nope

      Hint:

      The first 4 letters in the name of this glass company are a name of a Place, the last 5 letters (all one word) are *glass*. So there are a total of 9 letters in the name of this company, with the last 5 letters being the word Glass

      LOL
    19. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      LOL.....has it helped....? Nope not yet

      3......................................
    20. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      LOL

      2...........................................................

      Last hint, I HAVE posted another item by this same maker.....LOL
    21. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      just for Size comparison....
    22. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      Ummmmmmm...size comparison for the glass item, but the label might be close to that size too, I guess

      Any more ideas.....or you want the answer......LOL
    23. TallCakes TallCakes, 11 years ago
      quick delete that before icg... comes back
    24. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      okay....I did, will let him try to figure out too.

      I think it is killing him tho

    25. Vintagefran Vintagefran, 11 years ago
      Great post AR. Is it Altaglass?
    26. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      Bingo......Yes it is. Correct!!!

      Tall Cakes Guessed it too, but she asked it to be deleted so others could keep guessing
    27. racer4four racer4four, 11 years ago
      Lol!
      I think you have been unnecessarily cruel to poor Icollect!
      Me? I've never even heard of Altaglass so had no possible chance.

      Ah well, living and learning!
    28. antiquerose antiquerose, 11 years ago
      LOL.....Pretty open hints at # 30 and # 34

      I would never have thought that "Alta" by itself was a place. Unless it would be something like Alta Vista.
