S Reich & Co Cloud Glass |
|
|
S Reich & Co was
founded in 1813 by Samuel Reich in the town of Krasna, Czechoslovakia.
The company appears to have produced a limited range of items in Cloud Glass.
Although the styles were introduced in the late 1920s, it is not known when they
made them in Cloud Glass.
Copies of Reich catalogues from 1860 to 1936 can be found on Siegmar
Geiselberger's Pressglas-Korrespondenz web site at
www.pressglas-korrespondenz.de.
We will be expanding this page in due course.

in two sizes 29 by 21 cm and 28 by 12 cm. The powder jars are 12 cm and 9 cm

seen this taller candlestick in Cloud Glass. |

Reich
Pattern No: Tea Service
Known Cloud Colours: Sepia
Size(s):
Date Range: Unknown
Description: This
complete tea service in Sepia Cloud Glass appeared on EBay in late 2002. The
set was in it's original box and some of the pieces still had the original
label with the name 'JSAR Krystall'. The label bears a strong resemblance to
known S Reich labels and we think this is a later variant of the same
company.
