Title: Is this a Walther bowl? ID= Walther 'Kopenhagen'
Post by: oyemicanto on April 08, 2010, 03:47:07 PM
Hello
I picked up this pink/rosalin coloured bowl today in the local charity shop.It has a circle cut from the base which could be to fit the bowl on a base,has a cut design into the glass.Looks like Kopenhagen pattern but unsure.Please does anyone have any clues?
thankyou for looking!

Nige, would say yes, Walther Kopenhagen.
My large green Kopenhagen bowl (sorry no image so far) has got an additional 'YORK'-alike flower pattern too. (YORK:  http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/schalen/06497.html )

These Kopenhagen vases have got a round base, upside down - one of them could slot into the base of yours? Will need to measure them out during the weekend. And if I remember it right, there may be a flower in the base - shall have an intense look  ;D

Hi Pamela
Looking at those vases I bet the bowl would go on top if turned upside down! To make a centrepiece?
It makes sense.
thanks Pamela!

Nige, I bet one of the vases and your bowl make a centrepiece - what do you think?  ;)

These Walther 'Kopenhagen' vases have the following measurements:

large: height 170 mm, base Ø 80
medium: h 136 Ø 68
small: h 105 Ø 51

No flower cut in the base, but look well turned upside down ( after flower holder removed  ;D )

Forgot to say (as a pink bowl is missing at all) I'd like it, if you would part with it ?  :-[

Diving into the catalogues this afternoon:
Walther 1934, page 23 Kopenhagen section shows this centrepiece exactly as we thought to be a must:
bowl # 44133a and medium sized vase # 44112 height 135 mm

The vase is called 'Löffel-Becher-Form' which means spooner shape. On another Kopenhagen-page the English description for it is 'celery'

Thank you, Nige!  :kissy:

Hi Pamela
I am so pleased we have made a marriage!!!
Will find a box and package it up and have it sent! When I saw the photo of the vase you showed upside down I thought straight away that the bowl would slot into place!
Always happy to be of help and to think I nearly didn't buy it!
Thanks Pamela!
