Topic: Small stripey bowl diamond pattern polished pontil

[Andy]

I picked this up at the weekend, bought it because of the unusual pinky red colour,
and the quality.
a red stripe in the glass, very evenly done, a diamond pattern on outside, i presume mould blown,
and a polished pontil. 4 inches wide.
Cheers

I was just admiring the quality and prettiness of this little bowl, so i thought id bump it up
to see if anyone has any ideas

Smashing piece,did S&W do this with a black spiral as I saw a piece recently(inverted hat shaped bowl) and wondered,might get it anyway,Keith.

Black i dont know but dark blue yes and vases .

Thanks Christine, Victorian, again, i wouldnt have thought that, but now i look again , i suppose it must be
a good 100 years old.
Its getting promotion to a better shelf!

Hello,

No not Victorian, but 1930's, possibly into the '50's (as a continuum from before the war - rather like their Rainbow Ware). I've not seen black trailing with the diamond moulding.
