id request for floral style bowl with plinth.

(1/2) > >>

Paul S.:
I'm fairly sure this is not Bagley/Sowerby/or one of the pics. on Pamela's site - but have a feeling I've missed it somewhere.    Diameter is 10 inches/250mm.  It came with a plinth (see profile - 4" measurement on the top side), and on the underside of the plinth is the No. 2616 - which may indicate that this is Sowerby.   I don't think the bowl and plinth match - since when together the ground outer rim of the bowl foot sits outside the rim of the plinth (believe it should always be the other way round - yes/no?).   Should there also be a flower frog/dome/support of some description?   thanks for looking, and I'm hoping someone wil recognize the design. :)

Mosquito:
The plinth is Sowerby but the bowl isn't. It's one I've seen before, I think Libochovice but don't have Marcus's CD to hand to check.

Paul, same as Steven, I thought Libochovice, but their bowl # 1922 was footed, Ø 23 cms

Paul S.:
thanks to both of you, and yes, I was fairly convinced the plinth was Sowerby, and agree the floral pattern in Pamela's link is the same as mine.   However, not only does mine not have the foot, but the rim part of my bowl is very noticeably everted (flared outward).   Bit late at night for my brain just now, so I will pick up on this tomorrow.   thanks again.

pamela:
- flared outward is another step in production and would explain larger Ø
- foot might also have been attached or whole thing from another mould - who knows?

BEAUTIFUL BTW !!  :sm:
