Can anyone help ID this fabulous tray I picked up recently please?
-
Size? What's the base rim like?
-
It measures approx 13.5 inches (34 cm) x 9.75 inches (25cm) across x 16.5 inches (42cm) diagonally x 1 inch (2.5cm) deep. The base rim (the part it rests on?) is smooth and flat and measures 3mm. It weighs in at exactly 2 Kilos.
Here is a pic of it next to a Bagley Duchess Tray.
-
Smooth and flat as in ground smooth and flat, or straight out of a mould?
-
Gosh I don't know the difference, I'm trying to find your old thread where I've seen you explain it before.
-
If it's straight out of a mould it will have slightly rounded corners and the same shine as the rest. If it's ground it will have square corners and may have a different level of shinyness. It can help with dating, that's all.

I'd just come back to say I still can't decide on ground base or not, and will try and take some close ups of the base rim, but WOW thank-you Anne, I had a feeling it was Czech. :hiclp: Thanks also Christine for all your help. :sun:
-
I forgot to say Anne please use the pics on your Trinket Website if you wish. :)

Just noticed that Jayne showed the #1877 tray from this set on the GMB at
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,41041.msg227511.html#msg227511 <-- Mod. Topics merged for completeness.
Hope to have the lidded pots and pin tray from the set to show shortly.
Fred.

As promised, photos of small lidded pot # 1879, large lidded pot # 1878, and pin dish / tray # 1880.
(Permission for the re-use of these images on the GMB – and on Anne’s GTS site if needs be - granted by helena.0121).
Now all we need are photos of the matching perfume flask # 1996, the atomiser #1997, and perhaps the vase #3175.

Anne I believe your GTS Mystery 11 Pin Dish is the Pin dish 1880 part of this Rosice Set.
