WMF Ikora?
« on: March 27, 2010, 09:02:23 PM »
Is it WMF Ikora? And if so is it pre or post War? The stripes are silver chloride.

Hi Christine,
100% Ikora. Can you give us a straight side view and dimensions, please?
I´ll have a look into the Ikora book tomorrow to compare.

Nic´s a bit faster than me...  ;)
As he says, it´s the closest match to find. The shape´s not in their 1949 and 1951 catalogue,
so it should be a pre war piece.
Anyway the smaller bowls are certainly harder to find than all the 25-35cm ones.
BTW do you have any uranium Ikora?

Thanks all.  :kissy:  Worth £4 then (I'm sure the dealer thought he was getting rid of a bit of modern tat because he ALWAYS knows what everything is even when he's wrong, invariably tells you what he paid for it and tries to charge antique centre prices at a flea market. And yesterday he just said, "Four quid; that's a nice bowl that is.")

I don't think WMF Ikora has ever entered my awareness before. And I don't mean I've never heard of it, just that I've never seen it, so no I don't have a uranium piece.  :'(
