Title: Scandinavian or what? Please help with id.
Post by: kmax70 on August 18, 2010, 10:01:04 AM

As I have mentioned before I am a volunteer Ebay seller for a charity - furnitureplusltd-2008.   I have had this glass dish donated for selling and wondered if anyone can help me identify it better.   It is  approx. 15 cm in diameter, and the glass is approx. 1 cm thick - clear glass encasing a dark wine-coloured glass.   Many thanks for any help you can give.   kathleenM.

I have this dish with a blue centre but so far haven't managed to identify a maker...

Hi Anne
 If yours is a Kingfisher blue it might be a Whitefriars 9722 from 1969 catalogue ?

The one I have seems to be shallower and more open than the Whitefriars one - the scallopped edge is less inturned.   I have had a similar one with blue encased.   KathleenM.

The colour-and-clear style reminds me a lot of the the boat shapes we've identified as Bayel, France, but I don't know whether this shape is one of theirs.

Thanks Robert, but no it's not like that. Mine's more a royal blue - like Astrid says, it could be Bayel. The blue is the same as a known Bayel piece.
