I believe it is a type of curved glass designed for a particular architectual style.

I do not believe there to be "Corniche Glass".
Corniche is usually referred to as a casing (usaully done in metal like brass) as was used in antique carriage clocks and pocketwatches.
A corniche means a cornice or casing. Corniche is a city in Italy and it is therefore also used as a type of archeteture.
The term was used for model of the Rollls Royce car.
Maybe you are thinking of carnival glass, which is sought after and is desirable for collectors.
I have supplied you with a link below to see if this is what you mean.

I hope this helped clarify things for you.
Cheers!

From the rare references, it seems to be nothing more than curved glass, created by lumping into a curved mold, usually stainless steel today.
