Title: pink (ish) deco bowl
Post by: nicky00 on December 31, 2012, 10:37:39 PM
This dish is beautiful.
The colour is hard to pin down exactly as its a matt pink. I am not sure if you call the outside frosted/sandblasted?
I have no idea. I hope the pics replace a description adequately

Any ideas of its maker/ origins
?
Thanks
Nicky

hello Nicky.                No - don't think it was overlooked - more a case that no one was able to provide an id.
I did briefly think that it might have been something from the Lord or Jacobean (Czechoslvakian Inwald) design range, but that 'skirt' below the top row of lenses says no.            I believe that several companies produced designs with these rectangular lens patterns, and in the absence of seeing this particular item in a book, you may not find the maker.
Have you looked through all of Pamela's glas-musterbuchs?

It's definitely frosted but whether by sand blasting or acid etching is hard to tell without handling the piece. If the feet have been ground flat (looks like they have), your bowl probably dates to the first half of the 20th century. What size is it?

Welcome to GMB, Nicky!

Bernsdorf made a similar pattern, but I tend to believe yours is  Libochovice, TUDOR pattern  (http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Libochovice-circa-1925-1928.118+B6YmFja1BJRD0xMTgmcHJvZHVjdElEPTUyMzgmcGlkX3Byb2R1Y3Q9MTE4JmRldGFpbD0_.0.html)

I was going to suggest a similarity with Rosice Glassexport 1958 - pattern 219 on page 19, which shows a maximum size of 22cm, I think.
However, Pamela is the expert, but it does show the difficulty with some of these similarly shaped/designed pieces.
