Title: Vaseline Opalescent Bowl, English, Bohemian
Post by: ginfor on May 28, 2007, 08:50:34 PM

I'm trying to identify this bowl with a vaseline opalescent body, opaque pink bottom, and applied vaseline handles.  There is an embossed meander pattern and a polished pontil.  First guess is English, somebody like Webb or Richardsons, but I'd like a solid attribution if possible.
Thanks.
Forrest

Hi Forrest, your images are no longer available and someone was trying to take a look earlier today. Can you add them back onto the board please or upload them to GlassGallery for us?  The picture help and how to post is here in case you're not sure how the new image hosting works: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,6522.0.html or shout for a Moderator if you get stuck.

Many thanks. :)

I have reloaded the images, so the old links should work fine again.
