Fabulous resource Pamela :clap:

I've fallen in love with vases shown in the Josephinenhutte 1957 catalogue - nos.19 and 20 :mrgreen:

awe struck,  :chky:

To see the knowledge used and gathered for such a piece of work, beautiful.  :hiclp:

Ahhhhhhh right Pamela, I didn't realise that.    Thank you.

Nic: great  :hiclp: now also I do know what a Ziehzünder is: of course you are right! Picture # 603 shows matches to be pulled downwards for striking! Which for me only leaves the question: WHAT was inside the glass channels - I must take it that it was rough and only could 'incend' NON-safety matches - but safe anyhow  thank you 

[Pinkspoons]

I assumed that the matches were the self-lighting sort, as with the books of matches you get in bars and restaurants (or did get, until they banned smoking in public places), and that the shape of the glass was merely decorative. I'm probably wrong, of course.

I assume the ridges were for striking the matches on

Anne E B : thank you for your input and I wish you'll find one of these for your collection! a really sophisticated design!

Ooohhhhh Pamela, thank you, more goodies to look through.  :fwr:

I wonder if I might find my mystery blue powder bowl in either of them... it's defeated me so far everywhere else.

Great site and collection

ps. I'm sorry to say that item told to be Erkkitapio Siiroinen's Barokki, is not that.
