David? If there's a book about Chance glass, or a leaflet or anything...lol....can you get it for me, and I'll pay you afterwards please? Thanks. :o)

Hi Max,
No problem, I'll get whatever literature there is, but I'd be interested in a book myself as I have an unusual serviette holder in the Fiesta pattern. Never seen one before but I have a grudging respect for this glass even if it was cheaply mass-produced.

Hi All
--- Quote from: "Bernard C" ---
The author cites Chance Brothers & Co. Limited, 100 years of British Glass Making 1825–1924, Smethwick and Glasgow, Chance Brothers & Co., 1924. This might be available via interlibrary loan through any UK public library, and Broadfield House probably have a copy in their library.

If you cannot get this through inter-library loan, then there is a copy in the V&A art library.
Regards
Chris

Hello, a newbie to this forum. I am posting a photo (I hope) of what I believe is a chance glass dish and matching tray. Haven't seen one in this colourway before or with the intaglio design. But I understand that Geoffrey Baxter for his degree show did some intaglio designs for Chance.Could this be one of them? If not any other info would be appreciated.

Hello and Welcome!
I am positive that your handkerchief vase and tray are definitely Chance, and the more unusual top of the range stuff too! Congratulations! :D
