Does anybody know who made this and when? It is iridescent and very heavy.
Thanks for your time.

I believe it is Walther's (Germany) "Tudor" pattern, circa late 1930s. In iridised glass (marigold Carnival) it is known as "Stippled Waves".

IMHO it is somewhere between NORA and TUDOR of Walther, but none of it is it :cry:

Thank you both for your information. I like Walther pressed glass best of all but I have to say I dislike this piece and will probably find it a 'new home' in the not too distant future!

Hi Hilary, me too: I had that and gave it away, I've got it again recently, and still it is not visible on my site: in some way I do not like it either... funny experience though! :?

LOL Pamela - :idea: maybe we were genetically connected in a former life!! :lol: I have to say, I have spent hours 'drooling' over the pieces on your website and click into it at least once a day.
When I have looked at all of your pieces - maybe we should each compile a list of our favourite pieces and make comparisons so we can confirm or dispel the idea :wink: !!
