Jakub Brojdo (aka Georges Briard) went through quite a few extremely stylized periods. The above two sets of barware glasses are solid examples of his Art Nouveau period, likely appearing to the market in the late 1960s.
There are 4 similar patterns that I have seen offered. I will attempt to get photos of the other 2 patterns listed soon. Some of these pieces are actually labeled Art Nouveau along with his signature, most are signed in some way. I have seen these patterns on highballs, lowballs, roly polys and serving trays with the highball glasses seemingly the most abundant. That being said, this is a relatively rare to find, yet popular design. The enamel coloring does not seem to be as negatively impacted by time as often are the earlier Europa pattern pieces.
To discover more about Jakub and his 'nom de guarre' Georges Briard. Please refer to my other post 'Georges Briard History and Pattern Recognition'
