Title: Please help ID large amber bowl with House Martins
Post by: mhgcgolfclub on February 21, 2009, 03:30:42 PM

Help please to ID this quite large amber bowl decorated around the edge with what look like 6 House Martins, very similar to a Barolac bowl that I once had but do not think this is, the underside of the bowl has a textured feel to it, there is some scratching to the inside of the bowl looks like it may have been caused by a flower frog, the bowl measures 11" in diameter or 26 cm , height 3" or 7 cm and weighs 1.9 kg

many thanks Roy

Gosh, Roy that's huge, the only swallows ? of Walther I've got, are these - similar but not same I'm afraid: and in fact they are seagulls:

No idea of maker, but the bowl is shown in a Jules lang advert along with a Brockwitz fish handled bowl as discussed here: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,11232.0.html
