Help..who made this art glass bowl? - ID = Made in China

<< < (2/5) > >>

Cathy B:
Hi Beryl -
I'm afraid I don't know where they come from - it's another case of something that I've seen in a homewares shop somewhere, unfortunately. I have about three of the Atoll bowls somewhere, which is why I'd noticed these lookalikes with the thinner, more transparent trails. They're possibly not so much of a direct copy as an influenced design or just coincidental similarity.
Regards,
Cathy

Hi Cathy, I agree with you.. this doesn't look like Atoll. At all.  ;D
Atoll colours are more cloudy,the clear glass is just about glimpsed, the actual glass mass is thicker and the rim is "softer". Your'e spot on 

Cathy B:
Thanks - I've had attacks of insecurity lately!

Della:

Thank you, Cathy :hug: I wasn't even aware that there were look-alikes on the market  :-[

Well spotted!!!  :hiclp:

Cathy B:
 :hug: back at ya, Della! The beasties have started showing up in cheaper homewares stores - a couple of years ago?

Meanwhile, we've hijacked a thread! We'll shift the Atoll section of this thread over to the one in Scandi glass soonish.
