Title: Amber bowl. Possibly Whitefriars? ID = Whitefriars, see catalogues for more
Post by: Otis Orlando on February 15, 2010, 07:52:31 PM

This is a beautiful bowl with concentric bubbles. The bowl measures 12cm dia. and the height 4.3cm dia.  There is a concave pontil that measures 4cm dia.  The base has a lot of wear and tear that should give some indication of it's probable age. The bowl is about a 1cm thick. Can anyone confirm that this is a Whitefriars?  Kind Regards
