Lyn, thank you for bringing this up! I had replaced the plate and posy troughs on my site from VSL back to 'unknown' many months ago, but I forgot the vase - sorry  ::)

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

Hi Glen,

There's a pink bowl in the same pattern on p. 18 of Andy McConnell's 20th Century Glass, with the press-moulded mark "Czechoslovakia".  ??? Presume more than one company made the pattern - wish they hadn't made life so darn complicated...

PS re the ballerina bowl, should we split it out as a topic now?

 :) Cathy - they did it to make our life verrry tricky (a perfect example being those darned Pinwheel vases  :P)

And I guess, yes. Let's make the ballerina do the splits  :o

I saw a few of these marked Czechoslovakia at the first Northern Glass Fair in Harrogate - there are two pics of them in GlassGallery here: http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/thumbnails.php?album=36

Thanks Anne, yes I did see these. I think someone else might have posted this link.  I don't know, mine just doesn't look as impressive as theirs  :'( But then maybe it's just the display.  I guess I should just be satisfied with Czech for the time being. Maybe Glen will stumble across some more info.  Thanks everyone for your help.
Cheers,
Lyn

Here are some similar ones, I think the final verdict was czech on these although none were marked.thought you might be interested in seeing them. Polish link is interesting though.
