are these two bowls whitefriars ? - ID = Czech

These two bowls have also been bugging me for some time, both date from the 50's but i'm not sure of the maker can anyone help? the first has silver inclusions within the bubbles and the second has a cobweb design with pearline edges, both have the same polished bases almost identical, thanks Chris.

Hi Chris,
would be better two post each item in its own thread.

The first one is Czech, designed by Milan Metelak for Harrachov in the 1960s. The inclusions are Mica and not silver btw.

The second one could be Chribska...

Thats brilliant thanks at last a name for the first one, i'm not convinced on the second bowl being Chribska, i have about ten of those and the style is nothing in comparison but i might be wrong, i'll list them separate from now on, i'm still new to this. can you help with the first ? whitefriars i listed earlier please .

Here is the second bowl in the Chribska 1999 catalogue:

edit: if the link directly to the catalogue page doesn't work, it is page 54...
