Glen,

Mine are much more recent and nowhere near as beautiful as yours and Glen's, Pamela.

Anne thank you - I remember you had shown them, but forgot the origin of yours, are they Scandinavia?

I leave it to Glen to issue the link to her site here, but you find the thread immediately searching 'DRGM' and 'Glen'

 :wink:

Pamela - those are fabulous!  I love them.

Anne - I like yours also.  They look like ice sculptures.

Now I want one  :cry:

Pamela - your tea warmers are beautiful - so dainty.   Thank you for sharing :P  

This is my pot warmer, which the other Anne identified in another thread as a Bel Mondo pot warmer, made by Becker in Germany.  I thought at first it was some kind of strange sculpture.  Its a real heavyweight!  Its not a very good picture I'm afraid because of the ambient lighting :roll: .  I'll replace it with a better picture tomorrow.  Its actually clear flint and looks icy like Anne's pot warmers.

Pamela - many thanks for remembering my tea warmer, and for showing us your collection of beauties. What delightful and contrasting shapes. Splendid. Thank you so much.

Anne and Anne E.B. - thank you both too. It's absolutely fascinating to see the design progression of this intriguing, functional yet fabulous, form.

And Pamela, I have just recently (in the past few days) found out something extra regarding my tea warmer. It is both revealing and yet puzzling, and deepens the mystery. I'll try and upload the information to my website and mention it here, as soon as I have done it.

Thanks again to you all, for sharing.

Glen

Pamela, One of mine (the stone circle effect one) is Bel Mondo by Becker (it was boxed)  like t'other Anne's. These are German I believe - have you heard of them at all? The other I have no idea of maker as yet but I'm keeping looking for the answer. I love them as they are so beautifully ice-clear - we use them as tealight holders and have them lit along with other candles when watching a film on video/DVD.

Glen, I agree about the design progression. I had assumed these were a modern thing until you posted yours and it became obvious this was an older object being given a new modern styling. Having said that, I'd love to find the older ones to add to my collection as well. ;)
