Topic: id please for u. desert bowl

[Lustrousstone]

What's usually used is plaster of Paris. Are you sure it's mastic?

oopps.......the short answer is no, and as you may imagine I was using the term in a general sense .    If they are secured with P. of P. usually, then I'm sure mine is also.     However, I won't pick at it to see, because 'if you pick it then it will never get better'.    thanks again for correcting my error. Paul S. (I really am trying to improve, honestly!)

hi UK GLASS,
I think you should indicate the © of www.pressglas-korrespondenz.de when issuing a snap shot of "Reich's catalogue 'Sammlung Stopfer'", unless you are Siegmar Geiselberger yourself??

[UKGLASS]

I thought the pic may be of help to a fellow board member & as Siegmar sent me copies of the catalogues to assist others I feel sure he wouldnt object....... I think it  vanished into British because the initial enquiry was if the item may have been Bagley. :thup:

It was actually posted into here by Paul initially as he thought it might be English. It's not been moved at all yet. It will now be relocated to the proper place.

UKGLASS, we welcome all info you have to share but if you post scans from other sources please accredit them accordingly, and please don't post anything which is subject to copyright without the permission of the copyright holder, as the board's policy forbids those and they'll be removed by one of the Mods.

One (incorrectly?) described as Jobling here:

Anne, that's lovely and a must for my collection! So if the seller agreed to post abroad, I'd like to go for it if nobody else would like it more, please?

[Paul S.]

best of luck Pamela, hope you are successful.             I suspect it's the similarity with Jobling's 'jade' - which is a lighter and brighter green than Davidson product of the same name  -  that has prompted the apparent mis-attribution here.   Do let us know if you 'win'          

[Paul S.]

obviously not firing on all cylinders...............it might have been more useful had I said that Jobling 'Jade' fluoresces - as does this small bowl (Davidson 'Jade' did not include uranium dioxide)..............also that Jobling did produce a pattern called 'Rose', and it's most likely that this latter fact is where the confusion has arisen.
