Title: Two bowls, one uranium = Walther, other frosted green needs ID
Post by: uraniumsteve on May 24, 2010, 08:13:24 AM
Hello all

I would just like to share with you this awesome dish, Its Uranium made by  Walther just over a foot wide and 3ins tall from around 1930s it is stunning and glows so well I think it may give me radiation poisoning lol, As to the pattern that is still to be discovered yet.

The true reason for this post though is to find out as much about this second dish as possible. The size is 7 3/4 inches across and 2 inches tall. The glass is uranium although it does not glow very bright at all it is frosted so maybe this is why the pattern reminds me of ice cream if any of you have any pointers PLEASE LET ME KNOW
Thanks Steve

very choice pieces Steve, congratulations - you seem to have access to some good boot sales  -  I also like the oak table on which they are sitting :)   But sorry that I am not more helpful re the glass.

talking of oak made me forget to ask whether in fact you had trawled through Pamela's sites to help identify your pieces  -  always a first stop for me when I have these sort of things.

Hi Steve, I think your first one is Walther SIGRID as shown in Pamela's museum here:

The second one looks like a flower or float bowl which should have a centrepiece... again you might find a match on Pamela's site. :thup:
