Oooohhh they are both gorgeous!   :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I'm going to have to struggle to resist the temptation of these if I see them on sale... I don't have the room!

Pamela's site calls it the Three Graces base. I've gone through the Walther catalogues on Glas-Musterbuch but can't find a matching entry for it (yet). Do we have a date for it Glen?
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd

It is in a 1934 Walther catalogue, Anne. The bowl on top in the catalogue illustration looks like mine (appears to be same pattern and has a rolled rim with scalloped flutes).

This comport is shown in DK Collectables Price Guide 2007 page 274. It said a 1930 German Walther (Nymphen) pressed glass two-piece comport. Price £120-180. I saw one at the glass fair at a marked price of £250.  The reason what l looked at it because l got a blue one as well.
Never walk away from a bargain
