pressed glass bowl , czech? french? ID PLEASE
« on: August 14, 2013, 01:52:58 AM »
Hi everyone!
I am completely puzzled about a clear glass bowl I recently bought.
It is clear satin glass with a pansies design around it that reminds me a Czech Barolac design but also looks like french glass.
I attach some photos.
Thanks in advance!
Hugo

Hi Hugo, Just to mention since coming across my other version of this bowl in the linked thread above, I did also manage to find another variation of this bowl with exactly the same pansy design, this time with a chrome stand, unmistakably from the same production house.

I must have seen at least 4 of these bowls in at least 3 different variations by now, with exactly the same pansy design over the last few weeks. Interestingly all have been located in France, so, I think I may lean very slightly towards France as the country of origin for the time being. However, as Christine suggested the Schwieg Mueller & Co 'Roses' bowl does also look very similar indeed, so the jury is out on this one for the time being, until a firm attribution comes along, hopefully, in the near future. I'll keep my eyes peeled in the mean time to see if I can spot any others.

Hola Hugo,
wish to confirm Greg's information: lately one of my visitors who is quite knowledgable in French Art Déco Glass attributed this pattern to France also - possibly D'Avesn.

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

Finally managed to find another example with this moulded pansy pattern as previously mentioned with the chrome stand. So that makes at least 3 variations in this pattern, unfortunately, no exact maker suggested, apart from also thought to originate in France. I quite like this particular variation, I think all three would look quite good as a group.
