I love the tallness of the jug and the matching tapering bottom of both jug and glasses. Bought yesterday at auction for very little! I think they must never have been used, hence the label still intact and no chips or wear marks. Just lovely!

Thank you mustangtony and mrmajestic for the Love it!!
What type of label is it?
Hi vetraio50 - It is a yellow label with gold embossed 'Bohemia' with Glass written through it. It also has a symbol at the end of the word Bohemia and Czechoslovakia written in small letters along the bottom. It was added by the Glassexport or the distributors - 1950-1970's. I found it in my 'Hi Sklo Lo Sklo book by Mark Hill. I would have taken a photograph of it if it were not packed away. I keep a lot of cats and cannot display all that I have (all glass is confined to the cat free room)!! Thanks for the Love!

Thank you retrogirl for the Love!
