image search on the internet using terms such as frosted glass bowl or glass bowl branches and flowers, glass bowl. you will get thousands of images but may find more info when you see images that look like your bowl or plates, cups, etc that might be similar. search the internet for glass collector forums and ask there.... another thing would be to go to a book store and look through books on glassware, and bring it to be inspected where you run across an antique seller who has lots of glass ware..... or to take it with you when you go to flea market , show to the dealers who already have lots of glass on their tables. best wishes

I would also like to know this!

Hooker Furniture had a set very similiar if not the same to this once upon a time

What a fabulous find! I want to live in your coworker‘s neighborhood. :) I don’t know the answer, but wanted to add Poul Kjærholm to your list. He did these sort of loose weave chairs, too ... but most of his are armless. It also brings to mind traditional woven (and metal) Balinese chairs I’ve seen ... maybe someone’s modern take on that style. I’ll keep looking, I love mysteries like this. (Side note: those floors are gorgeous!) ETA: Now I want to weave my own chair: https://www.finewoodworking.com/membership/pdf/380353/011284064.pdf
