Title: 12 Amber glass 'ice cream' spoons
Post by: Simba on December 04, 2012, 06:04:36 PM
Can anyone help with the identification of this gorgeous set of 12 amber & flint glass spoons please. :) I was hoping there would be some kind of identification on the original padded case but there is nothing.

Oh Angela... they are beautiful...truly beautiful!  Wherever did you find those? 
I collect glass knife rests (art deco ones) and porcelain spoons,  but your's are Soooo special.

Oh, I have gone all faint...I'll see if I can find any info in the glass tableware info I have.
Rosie.  :)

I wonder if they might be Czechoslovakian glass?

The bowl is quite small that's why I thought ice cream spoons but  I will measure them and let you know.
I found them on ebay and they are lovely ! ;D

Stolle Niemen, Poland page 93 of their 1923-35 catalogue seem a good match -
there are fork # 1708 and large spoon # 1709 as salad server, and another spoon item 1710.

Unfortunately also this catalogue remains unpublished by SG:
 PK 2008-1  (http://www.pressglas-korrespondenz.de/archiv/pdf/pk-2008-1-05w-mb-stolle-niemen-1923.pdf) - there are just Brockwitz and Walther pages for comparison to WHAT...  ::)

Any PK-reader agreeing ?
