i can tell you it is a bought item; WMF have not been in the glassmaking business since 1984. Main supplier is Zwiesel, and they produce mainly in their Turkish factory at Pasabahce. So I give it 90% that the item is recent and turkish.

Hi Max, Anne asked Kev to post it on here because it's stickered - there was a discussion about these on here recently and no-one seemed sure who made them  ;)

Indeed - these were for sale in TK Maxx approx. 2 years ago at £3 each.

That's interesting Ivo, thank you, as mine is the same as Kev's but no label, so I was quite excited when I saw this one.

These things come along periodically so I thought it'd be useful to have a shot of a labelled one here on the GMB. Thanks Kev.  :-*
