Hello,
I would greatly appreciate any help in finding out more about this glass bowl that I acquired as a spontaneous purchase a few days ago for its beautiful appearance. It was described as an arts & crafts green glass bowl. I have trawled Google etc but can’t find anything similar.
Height: 10cm
Diameter top: 25cm
Diameter base: 16cm
Thank you

Hi apa,
I don't see any photo's!

Hi Deltab,
I can't tell why you can't see the images, please try these direct links.

It reminds me of the design seen on the vase discussed in this thread
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,2759.0.html
The link to the Harrach vase on Trocadero no longer works. The item probably sold. But if I remember correctly it was similar to your bowl - a smooth glass rather than an optic mold.

Thanks for that, lots of links to explore on that tread.
I'm just cooking dinner now so will follow them up later.
Thanks

I think it's also a possibility this is by Stuart, England.

sorry about the long link - I couldn't get the clever url thingy to work! :oops:
Although I think Harrach made something similar too as Connie said.

By coincidence Max I just got to the same reference from tracing a link to Stuart. The bowl (see photo or link to photo below) is almost identical to mine except mine has more waves / ripples.

I think it's a really lovely bowl, I'd like to have one myself...only I've got nowhere to put it. :D
By the way, have you used the photo from the website? I think it's a bit of sticky wicket to use peoples photo's unless you've asked permission, or maybe you have? Sorry, I'm just a bit wary of litigation!

Hey, that's clever! I had a go. I wonder if they stand the test of time? Maybe that doesn't matter so much if they just go back to long URL's?
On my favourites! :wink:

Just found this again and TinyURL doesn't work any more, so I guess that answers Max's question. ::)

This bowl is somewhat similar to one that I was asking for identification on here:-
