You have such a beautiful collection of Czech glass, wow, I am blown away and have a new thing I am going to collect Czech glass...you have converted me, with the other CW glass enthusiasts, esp.in the Czech Dept. these are so beautiful..I guess being a child of the sixties, I love the colors and artists of the era, like Peter Max(we had peter max sheets all our childhood), but the Czech glass, in it's colors, lack of conformity, free design is all very reminiscent of that era...I LOVE it!
