Topic: Fountain Glass or Czech Dish?

This little 10cm. dish appears in the Fountain Glass catalogue in flint glass as the No.1134 "Perth" pattern.

The history of Fountain is interesting, as shown here:

My thoughts are that they probably didn't have access to Uranium at that time and that this is an earlier piece by one of the Czech companies, I can't find which one. It is similar in style though to the ashtrays and dishes produced by Jablonec.

I think this might have been posted on the board before but here is the document from Sylvia Daintrey née Lowit
and dated June 2021:

And that's a lovely find

Nice one, but Czech is far more likely as I can't think of any post-war pressed UK uranium glass and the original Fountain Glassworks was bottles and containers.

Thanks flying free, that link is an amazing piece of research, I'm still searching for a maker.
