Chance Glass ? Graphic swirl design triangular dish .
« on: April 28, 2015, 03:49:27 PM »
Hi ,

I like the design of this 10 1/2" triangular dish / bowl however I can not find this pattern , I've tried the Chance.net site but for some reason not all of the graphics are working for me there , I am using a very old pc so that could be why .
 
Pattern is applied to the bottom of the glass.

Thanks for any help , Dave.

Not Chance this one, it looks like 'Spiegelunion Flabeg' seen in Chance Expressions page 87 by our own David Encill who will confirm if he's about, ;D ;D. Still a very interesting piece, ;D

From what I have read Filigranglas , Spiegelunion Flabeg swirl designs do not continue to the edge of the piece like your nice example. Maybe it's different with my repeated swirl design ??

Other than the odd handkerchief vase I have always put chance type glass back down again , these swirls however are quite mesmerizing . I have had to put mine out of sight for now as I was in danger of becoming hypnotised...  :o

Thanks Christine ,
Looks like quite a few companies had versions of the Iconic Chance swirl design .
The central hole is clear on mine as it is with the Chance glass swirl  ??? yet the heavier leading edge spoke of the swirl is the same as the German varieties .....
Chance made a triangular shape and I'm not sure who else did  ....
