Is this a 1930's Davidson Art Deco cloud glass bowl??
« on: April 21, 2015, 09:19:31 PM »
Ding Ding round 5...... My Grandparents bowl.
Does anyone think this might be a Davidson cloudy amber glass art deco bowl??? or am I way off beam here?

The upper surface is shiny and clear, the underside frosted and opaque. A swirl / cloud pattern runs through the amber glass
All help and suggestions gratefully received.
Simon

Yes I'd say so, see the description on the Stewart's Cloudglass website http://cloudglass.com/posy.htm which gives this...

Quote
Davidson Pattern No:  204 R
Known Cloud Colours: Amber, Green
Size(s):  7.5", 9" and 12.5" Diameter
Date Range:  1935 to 1940
Description:  The R ("Rolled" edge) version of the 204 posy bowl consists of a D type bowl with the edge turned up. The 7.5" version was introduced in 1936 and the 9 and 12" versions in 1937. Production of this variant ceased between 1938 and the start of the war.
