Topic: ID help with handled bowl

[theElench]

Can anyone help me with this please.

It's one of my favorite pieces especialy as I nearly didn't get to buy it.  It was on a chair, hidden under some newspaper, and the shop owner sat on it.  Luckily the chair was well padded and it survived.

One clue might be the owners parents lived in France and brought some of the stock from there.  So possibly French?

You photos are too small and don't blow up. Make the longest dimension 700 pixels and you should be OK. You have 125 kb per photo. The board makes the thumbnails for you

Sorry, not used to re-sizing pictures.  Will try again.
Should also have added size.

Max dia.  11.5 inches.
Height.   2.5 inches.

Can anyone I.D this bowl please.  It was the first thing I tried to get an I.D for but as I couldn't re-size the photos no-one could see it properly.  Several years on and I still don't know who made it or seen another like it, so thought I'd try again.

It measures 8.5 inches (21.5cms) across the bowl, 11.75 inches (30cms) including the handles and is 2.5 (6.5cms) high.

By a bit of techno-wizardry I've merged your new query into the old one so as to keep it all neat and tidy. Well done with the new pics, we can see what it is now, so hopefully someone will be able to help with an ID for you.

Thankyou Anne, I did try to find the original thread, but couldn't see it .

If anything I'm more intrigued now than before.  Several years of buying and selling on ebay and I've still not seen another or even anything that might be from the same set or range of tableware.  Now knowing a little more about glass and a few more sites to help I.D things I'm surprised that I've not seen anything similar.

Fingers crossed that someone will recognise it or have something in the same pattern.
