Are they Davidsons Luna or Whitefriars ??????

<< < (4/9) > >>

Della:
These are the 2 which I thought were. :oops:  :oops: This photo was taken with a cheap camera a good while ago, so quality not brilliant, but they can be seen on photo 2 below.


Here is a small amount of my collection:


 :shock: Click to enlarge :shock:

I have lots more, Carnival and other stuff, but thought this would do for now. :)

paradisetrader:
Yep I reckon you qualify as a fully-blown glasaholic fruit and nut case, Della. Welcome to the club !

and as to your Whitefriars wanna-be's ....well, I think they are !
Better pics / cloes-ups would help.......but
I cannnot see any crimping at the rim.
The color and texture look good.
I note that these are cased in clear which makes them more likely also although the rare ones posted at IIWF were FLC - no clear casing, I seem to remember.
The weight would be interesting to know and a tell tale sign but anyway
hopefully the WF experts can confirm, which I am not.

Della:
I am most definitely a fruit and nut case........and a glassaholic of course :wink:

Unfortunately, the guys on Whitefriars already confirmed that they weren't a Baxter creation. At least I am not the only one to be fooled by these though :?  :?

As to weight, 345g each. The base has a flat outer rim with a textured effect is still present in the middle, but as I previously said, I have only ever seen one tiny (not very clear, unable to enlarge) photo of the genuine article.

I have to make tea now, but will try and take better photos later. :)

Leni:
Erm ...... tentatively, 'cos I know you all know I'm not keen on Whitefriars .... if it's so hard to tell them apart, what makes the Whitefriars ones so much better than the other makes?  :oops:

Please don't hit me!   :shock:

Della:
Leni, I wouldn't dare hit you, or even contemplate it.
As to your question, Leni.......I haven't got a clue. I just bought these a good while ago, before I had even heard of Whitefriars. :oops:  :oops:
It is not Whitefriars the name that attracts me, just textured glass. It could be Walther, Alsterbro, Johansfors etc, or just plain unknown.
I don't think that there is much chance of finding out who made them, but the one posted by David E in another thread is of a similar shape when seen from above.
I am still in the middle of seeing to all and sundry, but will take better photos.
