Topic: Help identifying footed bowl please - ID = Whitefriars 9662

Hi,
This is a recent boot sale find but I'm having trouble identifying the maker.  The colour and style suggest Scandinavian glass to me, but am also wondering about British glass manufacturers.  Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Marie.

Possibly Whitefriars 9662 in Meadow Green, although the foot looks a little taller in the catalogue page, and you don't give the dimensions of your bowl... so it's hard to say.

Thank you very much for your reply.  I'd looked in Lesley Jackson's Whitefriars book, but not spotted it.  The bowl is 10'' (25.5cm) in diameter.  Does that help?  Marie.

Duh..just spotted how to zoom the image from the Whitefriars catalogue.  So 10'' diameter sounds right.  Thanks again.

Yes Whitefriars by Geoff Baxter i have it in two other colours , they used to call it the upside down saucepan lid .
yours is a nice colour . Part of their Scandinavian range .

That's the one!  I bought one last week in Cinnamon.............very lovely bowl in my opinion and a design feat, as it is so perfectly balanced.
