chance cocktail set ?
Sue C:
I bought some glass from a lady who said they came from her mum who only collected one kind of glass, so i am wondering if the cocktail set is by Chance or Fiesta or not even related?.
But i suspect i am answering my own question, that it isnt either.
David E:
This is the Hellenic pattern - not terribly common, but it is by Chance. Made from 1961 for just a few years. The glasses and tumblers are quite different as they are decorated in just the grape and vine pattern and are quite scarce.
Sue C:
Thanks David, dont know what happened but some of my pics did'nt show
Frank:
Some of those figures look more Egyptian, others clearly Greek.
David E:
Ah right - the celery vase is Spiderweb and the wine glass looks like Calypto (both Chance).
However, the cocktail set isn't Chance. It's often sold as such, but anything 1950s with enamel on it can get tagged as being made by Chance!
Frank: there is a little story behind the Hellenic pattern - buy the book! >:D
