12 Amber glass 'ice cream' spoons
« on: December 04, 2012, 06:04:36 PM »
Can anyone help with the identification of this gorgeous set of 12 amber & flint glass spoons please. :) I was hoping there would be some kind of identification on the original padded case but there is nothing.

Oh Angela... they are beautiful...truly beautiful!  Wherever did you find those? 
I collect glass knife rests (art deco ones) and porcelain spoons,  but your's are Soooo special.

Oh, I have gone all faint...I'll see if I can find any info in the glass tableware info I have.

I wonder if they might be Czechoslovakian glass?

The bowl is quite small that's why I thought ice cream spoons but  I will measure them and let you know.
I found them on ebay and they are lovely ! ;D

Stolle Niemen, Poland page 93 of their 1923-35 catalogue seem a good match -
there are fork # 1708 and large spoon # 1709 as salad server, and another spoon item 1710.

Unfortunately also this catalogue remains unpublished by SG:
PK 2008-1 - there are just Brockwitz and Walther pages for comparison to WHAT...  ::)

Any PK-reader agreeing ?

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)
