Hi. I do think it's Czech and close to Andromeda's shapes. I will leave it up to those more experienced than me to say if it actually is. Lovely piece anyway.

Hi Helga... I'd say certainly 50s Skrdlovice.  I'll leave pattern number to the more knowledgable.  :)

Hi Helga,
as Anik says a nice fifties Skrdlovice bowl. These can be hard to exactly attribute sometimes as several Beraneks made similar pieces...... at a glance it could be Emanuel or Jaroslav as a design, the variation in hot worked techniques and also some non pattern book sizes, sometimes make an exact match more difficult............... someone on the board may track a match down for you but rest assured it is Skrdlovice, you have a decent collection of fifties Skrdlovice now!
