Topic: ID Green Glass Clock Pls?

[rosecottagesales]

Hello all. Just wondering if someone could help me to ID the maker of this green glass clock please? I think it's Czech made, am I right?? Cheers Brenton

This is described as a mantel clock but no sizes are given. The clock itself points to it being an older piece... does anyone recognise the glass please? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140430439866

No idea, but love it apart from the colour  :ho: clock sounds to be a good one, pity there are no more views.

I found Brenton's earlier query re a green version of the same surround, so have merged them together for tidiness...

[pamela]

Here's a side view, always thought it's British  :pb:
Shall investigate it thoroughly later today

Hi Pamela

Thanks for doing so

Hi Anne,  did you mean the BLUE one?  And Pamela,  did you mean to add a picture?
Aren't they both lovely?

I thought they had a similarity to the green square plates I posted here a few months back, when Pamela ID'd them as Waltrout for me:-

It was the Macintosh style rose that caught my eye.

Not sure if this will help much, but I vaguely remember someone telling me these clocks were fairly modern, made in China or somewhere Far East.  Can't say I've seen any proof of this though.

Hi Wayne,  there are some Chinese lookalikes for some of the art deco / nouveau clocks.....a bit like the ones I have....a chunky square shape,  but I think these are the real thing.....although I stand to be corrected if I am wrong.

You're probably right Rosie, take it with a pinch of salt for now, I don't even remember who told me.  I'm sure it was this design though.  Just thought I'd mention it in case it led somewhere.
