Thanks to Kevin Hall for asking me to incorporate a “Chalet Gallery” into the site. He told me that he had really enjoyed and found useful this feature from my previous Web site and hoped it could be duplicated here as it really built community knowledge and sharing before. I do not know why I did not think to include when I launched this new site so am very glad that he pointed out the omission. From common production inventory to “Never say Never” pieces, all the glass shown here is verified Chalet. With various brandings/markings. If there is not an attribution credit caption accompanying the photograph, this is because the picture is of glass from my personal collection (past and present) or that the collector wishes to remain private. If you have a piece that you would like featured in ‘The Gallery’, please contact me. ‘The Gallery’ will be a constant work in progress with pieces being added weekly if not daily so visit it often! You mustn’t miss ‘The Articles’ either as they contain Chalet catalogue pages, historical photographs, videos, detailed information about certain forms, distributors, techniques, finishes…
