In 2005, thanks to Siegmar Gieselberger and Herr Neumann, some Markhbeinn catalogues surfaced. Markhbeinn was a glass wholesaler and distributer, not a glass maker. In these catalogues, we see a range of shapes in the knownInwald patterns such as Jacobean, Nola and Double Diamond.

Also in the Markhbeinn (Inwald) pages there was another illustration that solved the of who made this splendid Provence pattern. We had always suspected it was Czech - and now we know it was Josef Inwald. It was called "Rivoli" in the catalogue.

The catalogues also provided us with definite proof that Inwald also made Drapery Variant, clearing up yet another mystery
