Title: Little ashtray..czech..?? although base is wrong...i give up :0) any ideas on ID
Post by: jonchellycain on June 02, 2009, 09:04:13 AM

Hi there
i picked this up on sunday for £1.50, at first glance it reminded me of mstisov rhapsody, but the colours are wrong and it has a pontil mark on the base  which is ground out and polished (similar to whitefriars, although im pretty sure its not whitefriars) but is raised at the edges. Good wear to the base so i wouldnt think it was brand new, and quite well made . amber cased in clear glass with  four blobs of colour around the edge 2 green 2 blue 14.5cms in diameter
many thanks
michelle

A friend has one of these, slightly different colours (from memory). My first impression is that they 'looked' Czech, especially the blobs of colour.

Thanks John, thats always been my thoughts on this one, there is just that little bit of nagging doubt, because the base just doesnt seem quite right
