This was produced by Richard France. The name Richard was also used by Loetz on cameo glass. There are a couple of things worthy of note. The deep blue over opaque red is almost certainly unique to Richard Lorraine and their production was almost exclusively two colour. This is the first Richard Lorraine cameo that we have offered for sale.
