These beautiful frosted pine cone bowls are
french designed, but made by Verlys in America.
Verlys glass was made in Rouen, France, by the Société Holophane Français, a company that started in 1920 eventually branching out to Newark, Ohio, from 1935 to 1951. The art glass is either blown or molded. From 1933 onwards they focussed on high quality press-moulded glass. They produced clear, frosted, opalescent, and coloured items with designs typical of Lalique-style glass of the 1930's, - plants, flowers, birds, fish, and abstract geometrical patterns. The American glass is signed with a diamond-point-scratched name, but the French pieces are marked with a molded signature that may include the words "Verlys France" or "Verlys Made in France".
