John Styler asked for help in identifying a piece of glass. Michael Krumme found something similar on eBay that “nailed it”. Only one problem as pointed out by Lyle Fokken of La Crosse, Wisconsin.

Love the Gazette. Ebay 370577987386 is not Pairpoint. I’ve sold many pieces of this quality cutting over the years and they are Val St Lambert. Very high quality but not American. Also, we need to remember Michael Krumme stated that the cutting in the auction he pointed to was only similar in style, not the same. While a different pattern, I would guess that John’s glassware was also Val St Lambert and suggest he look through Replacements.com patterns under that company.
