Glass Trinket Sets / Re: Mystery Set #85.
« Last post by Jayne on Yesterday at 11:33:44 PM »
I can't seem to find any other threads on Mystery Set #85 but I've found an ID for the tray in the Czech Stolzle 1930's Pressed Glass Catalogue.

Page 6 Pattern 18892

https://www-bohemianglass-org.translate.goog/katalog/c-stolzleho-synove-kat-187-lisovane-sklo-4935/detail/?_x_tr_sl=cs&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp

The Mysteries Gallery link for #85 is here:

I have also seen photos of the full set in Amber Blue Green and Pink.

Additionally it might be worth noting that this set shares the same design Ring Holder and Candlesticks as Mystery #79

VESICA PISCIS
This piece by František Vizner for Škrdlovice may seem disconcerting to some.
It baffles me to see the similarity it has with the “Virtual Potato”
described in my little treatise on Beauty.
Both address the mystery of the primordial vesica piscis.

Jayne, thank you!  :-* That's fabulous, I've been hunting for this piece for ages, and what a super catalogue that is, I'll have a good look through it later this evening when I've finished my current task (sewing bunting - don't ask!)

I'd not noticed that catalogue before Jayne, there are some other mystery pieces in it, eg. No.18726 on P.1 is mystery No.54. I'll have a look through for the others. I've just seen your other posts on this.

Glass / Re: Frosted baluster bud vase
« Last post by Ekimp on Yesterday at 07:38:39 PM »
I forgot I’d posted this vase. Below is an image of the frosted surface at x175 magnification, looks like they used a relative coarse grade of grit for this one, the finish shows nicely.
