Glass Identification - Post here for all ID requests > Glass Trinket Sets
Pamela? Glen? Anyone know about this Dresser Set?
AlmasAttic:
--- Quote from: "pamela" ---fantastic photos, Cheri, thank you!
But I am very sorry, I can neither identify yours nor Anne's :twisted:
the matt finish of your set, Cheri, tells me it is probably not of German Art Déco production :?
--- End quote ---
thanks Pamela tho I am puzzled re your comment on the satin finish...I have had Walther Nymphen green items in with this same finish, and the Mary candlesticks have this satinized finish too :?:
pamela:
Cheri, I shall have to ask Mr. Mauerhoff when we all meet here Whitsun.
Fact is that all Walther glass I have been able to buy from UK or elsewhere is matt finished and should be 50/60ies production. Only Walther glass bought locally (and it is very few :cry: ) is shiny or at least partly shiny
Best proof for this is my Schmetterling vase in pink and green:
pink : probably pre-WWII
http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/vasen/00851.html
green: most certainly after WWII
http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/vasen/00851.html
And the 'worst' Walther items are these Fische-bowls: obviously clear glass finished matt pink colour applied:

Especially the Möven-centrepiece makes it obvious that it's quite a different quality of glass and colour
But, after all, I do hope the experts like Mr. Mauerhoff will join us in June and give more details on production of pre and after war :shock:
Leni:
Pamela, you accidentally posted the pink Schmetterling twice, and not the green one! :o
Please can you say how you can tell whether it's pre or post WWII? And do you think my amber Schmetterling is pre or post war? :o
pamela:
Leni, I think both my green and pink one are visible there? If not please inform - could it be my local website then that I see them both in one place?
pre or post war: I can only ask for your patience until Mr. Mauerhoff gave more details on production at that time - it is just my interpreting my glasses so far (always :twisted: )
Glen:
Pamela - could it just be that more matte ones were exported and more glossy (shiny) ones were not?
