Red pressed glass bowls. ID = Anchor Hocking
« on: February 09, 2015, 04:10:58 AM »
I've 2 red bowls here and like an idea who made and manufacture date range, please.
They are not red flashed.

Large bowl dimensions are:
200mm Dia. x 80mm H.

Small bowl dimensions:
115mm Dia. x 45mm H.

In the internal base of the small one has a moulded mark.  Could be a anchor?
Nothing on large one.

Thanks in advance for ID reply. I suspect an easy one to solve.


So it goes.

Thats them - ANCHOR HOCKING - ROYAL RUBY

No trademark in large bowl like that one, only the small and different orientation.
I suppose there was another in between size too
Didn't pay much for them from a charity store here weeks ago.
It was the very nice deep red colour sucked me into buying stuff I don't really collect... so it goes.   ::)

Might be able to cut the middle out of the big one and a smaller hole in the little one to make a lamp shade.... one day.... maybe. 
So it goes.

There probably wasn't another size in between. There would have been five more small bowls to make a dessert set

OK, now that gives a better understanding of what they were made for.
Thanks Christine. 

These were found on two separate occasions at different shops, so no long term relationship between them till now.  :D

Pity no intermediate... I was just sizing up some brass galleries I have here to see if it was viable.
So it goes.
