I've got a repair in the shop that we are trying to find replacement glass for. Supposedly the windows/doors were made in France. I can't seem to find anything remotely close to the texture of the large piece in the photo. Anybody have thoughts? We only need half a sq ft.

Hello,
We have a small bit of something we got years ago at Art Glass House in Cocoa, Florida....They carried this line of glass from Europe (colors and clear) - never would tell me who made it. Looks close to what you are looking at, at least

I work in Spain and I have had the occasion to receive some work comissions that included the replacement of pieces of that same glass.Unfortunately I have never been able to find any manufacturer that offers something similar and would be happy to do so. My solution has been to find it in demolition works and old glassware stores. On shelves of remains. I would also appreciate any information about this product.
