According to A Collector's Guide to Anchor-Hocking's Fire-King Glassware, volume 2, Georges Briard is a fictitious name chosen by artist and glassware designer Jascha Broido and his friend Max Wille.

After being discharged from the Army in 1947, he went to work for Max Wille selling decorative items and eventually started Georges Briard Design. "Pieces of Georges Briard are easy to identify; most of his work was done in 22k gold and will always have his signature. You will find Anchor-Hocking casseroles, serving dishes, and glasses with art work signed by Georges Briard."
