Malta Glass / Re: Is this an Mdina Tricorn vase?
« Last post by Owen_W on Yesterday at 09:56:46 PM »
Just out of interest there is an Mdina Tricorn plate/bowl on the bay at the moment that has gathered some attention. They are calling it a plate but I am wondering if this is one of the Mdina bowls. It does seem very expensive... You lot must have deep pockets ;)

Glass / Re: Double Cobalt Cut to Uranium Marmalade Preserve on EPNS Holder for show
« Last post by mhgcgolfclub on Yesterday at 09:23:34 AM »
Thanks

100% not a marriage, the glass fits perfect as it sits on a silver plate base. Is it possible to find out when S&W started to make this sort of glass.

Pretty sure I have seen these in a Sowerby catalogue, possibly 1885, haven't got mine to hand at the moment so I can't check.
I have seen similar items in at least two different sizes over the years.

Glass / ID help. Caithness glass 1960's stem vase. O'Broin??
« Last post by Stan54 on September 21, 2018, 05:01:56 PM »
Can anyone assist in the identification of this vase.
It is just under 6" tall, cased at the base,could be twilight or soot in colour and is made of very thin glass.
I bought it in the North of Scotland.Could it be a early Domhall O'Broin piece??
I'm not sure, so any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks Anne,i’ve Just done a serious measurement and the width is 7.7cm and the ht pretty much 10.2 although it has a slight lean,it’s got to be I would say.If I were an optimist there could be a small O or D on the base,but this could be a slight blemish from the making.I love it and the seams work really well with whole aesthetic,it’s got character.Thanks again :)
