Hi there
This one is driving me mad today as i know ive seen this before but now cant find the little wotsit.. Im pretty sure it should have a black plinth to it??
although maybe its the wrong dish, although i dont think it is. :-\
can anybody tell me any details for this, ie age, where its from and approx value or a nudge in the right direction, also which book is it in as ive searched mine about 5 times each and i know its in one of them  ::)
Boy riding a fish on the frog with frosted pattern bowl in green uranium glass

many thanks

Another unknown maybe Czech, maybe German (perhaps Mueller). Pamela has two here in different bowls http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/tafelaufsaetze/tafelaufsaetze.html , scroll right down. I also think Nigel has this one. If the bowl colour matches I would say it was OK. I think these things were often sold mix and match.

Hi
Christine is right it could be Czech or possib ly Mueller.It sometimes comes in a large bowl with frosted leaves and also a large bowl with a pond theme.Strange thing is the leaf bowl I have also seem with the Mueller lady in it,think it was also the same maker as the girl on tortoise I used to have.Mix and match that Christine mentions is also a maybe,the bowl you have it in also came on top of the lady with column/Cherubs or with the September morn girl and flower frog.
Many thanks!

Hi there
many thanks for all your input. I think this maybe a mix as ive seen the bowl on its own and ID as Walther? but never a def on the boy/fish. The boy frog is completely frosted and the bowl is part frosted part not, but where the bowl is frosted it has a textured effect and all be it very similar i think the colour is ever so slightly different..not enough to notice easily but just slightly, still look good together though.
thanks again
michelle

I don't think the bowl is Walther, the base looks wrong and the colour doesn't look quite right. A mix of part frosted and frosted is OK too.
