I think glass items sold in the UK are/were much more multi-purpose than those sold in the US. So if the glass matched why not buy it as a salad set.

I tried to but was outbid.  Have been looking ever since for a nice pink or blue set, green at a stretch.  (I just look for them to reassure myself that they're out there - can't actually afford to buy at the moment, unfortunately!)

But Rosie, sweetie, I don't want to be 'so now'...  I prefer being my regular fuddy-duddy 'ol self. I really don't need or desire the chaos of colour around me.

I like the idea of a multicoloured set but I am far more yesterday than now...

It turns out that since I bought my sister her large bowl and five small bowls she has gone freelance :o and picked up two more, a small pink bowl and a medium green bowl. I am pretty sure the medium green bowl is uranium though it does not show in these photos.

John, thank you so much for posting the picture...  a (matching) set is lovely! 

P.S.  Being more yesterday than now is just fine with me. ;D

I concede......they are lovely as a set   :clap:....

The little pink one could hold the extra prawn cocktail sauce, and the medium one the bread rolls....there you are, I'm at the table already!! Pass the butter please.  What, no matching butter dish??  Tcht!

If you had a really long table you could have a shoal just for display.  ;D

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
