One of A Kind
These are unique pieces - we have not seen others like them. Yet!
Until we see others, Susan Mitchell has the only Chalet beaver that we've seen.
Yes - this is etched "Chalet Canada."
This dish has a company award engraving on its base. The year is very significant - 1967. The Centennial.
A completely mouth blown Chalet "belly button" vase. Etched "Chalet Canada."
Etched "Chalet Canada."
This bullicante Chalet paperweight is etched with the "Chalet Canada" signature.
Cute, kicky and etched.
A special order set of Chalet bookends. The original owner did not like apples so since she lived in Cornwall, it was easy for her to go directly to the factory and ask for exactly what she wanted! I am fortunate that they now belong to me.
this vase is also a completely mouth blown Chalet piece. Etched "Chalet Candad." Also from my personal collection.
Discovered right in a Cornwall antique shop! This is a truly unique style of Chalet "fingertip" bowl.
On purpose or was the temperature of the Chalet cooling ovens too hot? No matter - it is a great piece! From the collection of Alex Wicks.
Etched Chalet basket stunner from the collection of Bruce Budden.
From the collection of Cindy Bishop Laughlin.
A set of Chalet bud vases from the collection of Dan Hammill.
What a vase. This Chalet beauty is from the collection of Jackie Lyn.
Jon Saxon is the lucky collector who owns this 3 tone and very differently styled Chalet maple leaf.
Ray Caron, a Cornwall native, was told this was a Chalet "test piece."
What? How? Why? From the collection of Sally Hore.
A lovely Chalet bullicante vase from the collection of Steve Allen.
A Chalet "DNA" paperweight. It is the only one with these many coloured strands. From the collection of the Cornwall Community Museum.
A very early pedestal bird figurine from the collection of the Cornwall Community Museum. Etched 'Chalet Canada."
A Chalet "vase of many colours". From the collection of Troy Danby.
This was another Chalet special order piece. Jeremiah Shaver is from Cornwall and his parents both worked at Chalet for some time. His father had this made there for his mother - an anniversary gift. Etched "Chalet Canada."
The only multi-coloured Chalet ribbon vase that we know of to date.
A little Chalet slag piece - I call it a Chalet tree. It is one of the favourites in my collection. I think it was sold right at the Chalet Cornwall factory as it retains a Chalet company inventory sticker that was used as a price sticker. It also, for some strange reason, has a Chalet "Canadiana Cranberry" hang tag. But that just is more evidence of why I constantly prattle on about how "The only consistency with Chalet is its inconsistency."
A vey unique Chalet vase. Since Ella Hanks loves orange so much, it is fitting that it makes its home with her.
A very unique candleholder now lights up the collection of Cathy Antonyshyn.
