Dealer's description, pic 1: Pair of Loetz cameo glass stemware, signed Richard, 1920's, in excellent condition. Title is Paysage Grave, 7.9" tall. " Both were duly marked. As I was unpacking them them, one stem [Pic. 3] brushed against the other and I heard the loudest PINNGGGG! this side of Baccarat and Waterford, a sound I do not associate with Loetz class: lead glass? I decided to double check. And just at the pontil I found an acid-stamp wth the words "CRYSTAL, NANCY, The Cross of Lorraine and the initials CN!!!
To summarize:
Goblets with Cameo Bowsl comissioned from Loetz through Jouve for Etling with Crystal, Nancy, Lead glass stems!!!!!!

This is a mystery.
Lerksel, a "mystery" for which there is evidence is not a mystery. But it does shake up preconceived notions!
BINGO !!!!
Beautiful. I wonder how they married the two pieces of glass?
The name "Richard" was not the property of "Loetz".
It belonged to J. Jouve and/or Etling, who in turn could have it manufactured by anyone they chose. In this case, pressed glass goblets and typically in the style of "Cristalleries de Nancy (CN)".
Gascan, your information goes directly contrary to what Has been written before. Please provide source and proof, for if is true it changes years of research [and make my finding much more interesting]
Sorry, I meant "and makes".
