Interesting desk tidy? Looks a bit foreign bauhaus ish???
« on: February 18, 2017, 09:27:01 AM »
 :)
unusual little thing I think to big for a dressing table maybe more suited to a desk, Its 9.5" long x 2" tall x 3" wide the decoration is lovely im sure ive seen it somewhere before but cant remember it, Seems quality glass lots of wear to the base and a fair bit of rubbing to the decoration which seems to be sort of lightly frosted glass with the black and yellow on top. Any ideas??? Thank you gmb.

It has similarity with the designs of Alfred Walter from Fachschule Steinschonau. 
So I would search Fachschule Steinschonau and see if anything comes up.
