Walther Athene? Fruit Set.
« on: July 16, 2020, 01:16:00 PM »
I've just bought this set of four of each 12cm. bowls and 15cm. plates, I already had the 24cm. bowl. I don't think the Athene pattern is catalogued anywhere except as six-footed bowls. Pamela, on pressglaspavillon, has the small bowls and plates listed as "Athene?" and "Replik?". From the quality and the glow under UV I think they are genuine Walther, but I may be wrong.

They all have flat, ground bases.

Thanks Christine, that confirms what I thought, I was a bit curious as to why Pamela doubted the authenticity of the bowls she shows.
