Purple Finger Bowl & Under Plate ID?
« on: May 09, 2025, 08:46:22 PM »
Any opinions on the maker of this amethyst/purple finger bowl and under plate, please? Plate diameter 8" and bowl height a little over 2". The seller suggested Powell / Whitefriars but I suspect there will be a number of possibilities.

Your pictures have a funny effect, so can you repost them please without any editing beyond cropping and resizing

I didn't edit before or after resizing! Still has that psychedelic effect... I'm stumped.

SNJ it looks like the resizing has caused the funny effect, as when I look at them full size they are pixelated. It'd be worth checking your camera/phone settings just in case they've gone awry. 

Edited to add: well done, the last batch of photos don't have the pixelation, so it's a resize issue somehow. Normally you should be able to get an image below the 125kb size limit by setting the longer edge to around 700 when you resize it, and then optimise the image to around 80% of the full resolution. We've a help post here which is worth a read for image resizing https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,34093.0.html
