Title: Help with Sabino please...
Post by: John Smith on January 21, 2013, 02:00:13 PM
Can anybody assist me please with the correct pattern name of my Sabino bowl, and its date please.

10.25" diam (27cms)
3.5" high (9cms)

One of these days, I shall invest in a book! :-)

Cheers to all, John

That's a tricky one! It's shown in Decelle's Sabino Catalogue Raisonne, but the picture has no caption. However it appears on the same page as the various 'Les Anemonés' patterns so is possibly from that series.

Thanks Steven, Have you any idea of its date please?

I was also thinking along the same lines of the Sabino Coquille et Perle  pattern bowls for its date, but as I have no reference books at all here, I cannot say.

Raisonne translates to Reasoning which does seem slightly strange to call this piece?

Your guidance is much appreciated... John

 ???  ::)  ???  Sorry, I have no brain...
I now realise that RAISONNE refers to the book title... ooops!

... I think it good to give credit, when it is due.
Should I decide to sell this piece Steve/Mosquito, may I give credit to you within the item listing please...
Naturally, I'd respect your privacy and keep things low key and confidential,
but I very much welcome sound advice and it should be praised and applauded from where it came from, in my view....
Cheers, John
