Topic: Triangular bowl - ID = Zabkowice

[yesvil]

Yes Czech, Sklo union known as a harlequin bowl.

Thanks Nemmie - found a few now.

Well I can't find them in the catalogues but I have them in my notes as being Sklo union, not sure where I got that information from at the moment but I know the harlequin name is used on Ebay.

Maybe Jindrich can give more precise information.

Edit: It seems that I am wrong again, well probably right about Czech but wrong about Sklo union. There is a thread here where they are discussed http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,22030.0.html Mod: merged into this topic,
 see previous posts

I wear orthopaedic shoes, I stand corrected.

This is Czechoslovakian piece, Jablonecke sklo n.p., designed by Václav Hanuš

Possibly mistaken for Sklo Union piece from Rosice, designed by Jiří­ Brabec, see picture.

Jindrich, do you have the reference please?

The dish appears to be Polish. It is described as an ashtray in the 1971 Zabkowice catalogue which can be accessed via the pressglas-korrespondenz website :

https://www.pressglas-korrespondenz.de/archiv/pdf/pk-2013-3w-01-mb-zabko-1971-pressglas.pdf

Scroll down to page 28 - Item 2301. The candleholder can be seen on page 31 of the pdf. The ashtray is specifically attributed to Jan Sylwester Drost at this site :

I know this is old but it got referred to elsewhere. (Mod: merged into this topic now) The bowl Jindrich cites is completely different: his has four "sides", the OP's has three!!

In May/June of this year Lublin hosted an exhibition of the work of Jan Sylwester Drost and his wife Eryka Trewik-Drost. The link below gives us some pictures.

The 1st picture includes Jan Drost. The 3rd picture shows two copies of the glass ashtray which is the subject of this thread.

Christine, yes, Jindrich says the OP one is Václav Hanuš and he posted the image of the other Jiří­ Brabec one to show the difference between them, I think, as some folks confuse the two designs?
