No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection.

Bohemia, Czechoslovakia, Czech Republic, Austria / Three Stolzle Pieces.
« Last post by NevB on Today at 12:30:09 PM »
Though not in the catalogue I believe these three pieces are Stolzle. The plate similar to the 18437 on P.19, and the dish 18475 P.6.

Just to give this one a bump, not in the catalogues but it is Stolzle.

You tie a linen cloth around it, soak it in ink and use it to ink copper etching/ engraving plates under pressure. There should be different sizes in a set and different curvatures to allow you to press ink into the shallower engraved parts.
Or it could be a blotter.

I wasn't brave enough to say that, because I couldn't see any wear around the bottom of the glaze.

It is very black and very shiney. And we all make mistakes. It's only bad when we don't find out or correct them, Tim. ;D

Bohemia, Czechoslovakia, Czech Republic, Austria / Stolzle Dish
« Last post by NevB on Today at 09:48:20 AM »
This isn't in the catalogue but has a combination of the panel pattern on the 18872 pedestal bowl on P.17 and the ball pattern on the dishes on the last page.

My guess would be it's a lid, possibly for something like a storage/tobacco jar, numbered to identify it as is done with decanter stoppers.
