Blue glass centrepiece
« on: July 14, 2012, 04:17:17 PM »
had a brilliant day picking up bargains  (All glass items !!) and came across these two blue items a bowl and matching vase, when I got them home I realised they fitted together to form a centrepiece. Does anyone know who made them ? I have had a look at Brockwitz and Walther catalogues but no luck so far.

This is no help at all but had to say I have seen a number of 'vases' with that style of foot and the bowls but never crossed my mind they fitted like that. It is a very effective piece. We live and learn. Can you add a picture of the base of the bowl please so I can see how they fit together. Thanks. Pete

I have seen victorian celery & sald bowls that fit like this, my mam has one. There are two deep grooves under the bowl for the foot of the vase to fit in quite securely. :)

This is a fascinating piece - thank you for sharing!

A very close match to the bowl is Rosice 1958 page 8 # 2939, please see Newhall CD

There are certain similarities in design to Brockwitz # 9086    but Rosice it is, I believe.

Vase not found yet, sorry.

I really like the simplicity of the design and would imagine that not many survived as a pair. What was the name of the maker ?  As I said I have seen a few of the vase/stand part, one big piece in amber that had a curved foot, and will really keep my eyes open a bit more now. If only I could remember where I saw the bleedin amber one !! Time to retrace my steps... Pete

Pete, are you thinking of this Stolzle vase which is very similar ? Unfortunately I haven't got a bowl to try it  :) Pamela has found my blue bowl in the Rosice 1958 catalogue possibly the vase was in an earlier catalogue and it went out of fashion.
