Sue C:
Hi Frank, yes you are right, just took another look some of them do look rather Egyptian??
David the dishes are quite large the oval is 14ins the square is 11 and a squidge, and the oblong one's are 13ins.
The glass is Calypto and i have a set of six.
Well i wonder who was responsable for the cocktail set??

David E:
Just revisiting this...

There were several companies that were decorating (but not making the glass) in the 1950s, but the black enamel is not that common.

On the Spiderweb vase: if you look closely around the top, close to the rim, you might see 'Celery' acid-etched. If not, it was probably a pickle jar or biscuit barrel – this is the only difference between them, other than the type of lid used that distinguished between the pickle and biscuit.

Hellenic: the long rectangles are the sandwich tray and hors d'ouevres tray (with 3-segments).
