Hi,
Sorry Pamela, I somehow got the idea that the Mauerhoff item was on export of glass to Australia. Mea culpa.
If you can please give me the reference, I can forward the article to glassaddict.
Regards,
Marcus

Thank you both for taking the time and trouble to help me with this - I would really like to read this article as I am really interested in and like Walther glass.
Although a complete novice, I love the feel and quality of their glass - both the vintage and contemporary.
Many thanks, :D
Hil

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)

I have seen pink amber and green on the web but none in blue - are these sets scarce?

I think they were for hairpins or hatpins or both!

Hi Hil,
the oblong is about 20 cms long and is for comb and small brush I presume
