Post by: chopin-liszt on August 11, 2011, 12:58:22 PM: This is what can happen when a German and a Netherlander communicate in English - no matter how fluent they both are! It is the fault of the language allowing plethoras of double negatives.
:ooh:

I'm not a bad guesser - I'm just losing my cognitive abilities...
What a relief! ... boohooo... :cry: :pb:

Post by: Helen on August 27, 2011, 06:16:44 AM: I may be wrong but I'm sure that I've seen the 'Hand Made Quality' label on an Ikea piece recently as well (a glass dish). I've just won the item (and hopefully some more interesting bits) in an auction so once I've picked them up, I can check whether my memory serves me correctly (or not which is also quite likely!).
Title: Re: Heavy,quality 3 piece set ?,label i cannot read,so who made me?
Post by: Helen on August 27, 2011, 12:17:00 PM: Got the dish now and the label is the same apart from on my glass blowing little fella, he's got an apron on with IKEA written on it. By the way, I wasn't disputing previous comments at all, just wanted to add further information for reference / discussion. I guess this means your pieces aren't Ikea but perhaps come from the same supplier...

Looks as if they really are quite "recent" and the sticker is definitely the one Ikea uses.

I just got my hands on IKEA catalogue 2012 this week and the items match what is presented as
IDGRUND - a 3 piece set for the bathroom. Designed by Sigga heimis. Price 9.95e/set (in Finland)

Ps will have to look up INGRUND,$9-95 :cry: :thud:

I'm not sure I haven't seen this "hand made quality" label (minus the ikea reference) on contemporary Portmeirion glass too.......

Post by: chezholloway on August 28, 2011, 01:43:40 PM: Hello All, I'm new here. Could not let this one go by. I believe this is a bathroom set From IKEA. You'd have to check their catalogue to be sure.

Hi Kitty-kat
Just measured it and it's 27cm long, 20cm wide. I'm the (not so proud) owner of two of these dishes now. I bought a green one from a car boot a while ago and hadn't decided whether it was an Ikea one or something more interesting. This new one from the auction lot has confirmed it's origin as Ikea! It's amazing how many of these I've seen on my travels around the internet listed as Holmegaard, Flygors etc. I'll just do another post and attach my green Ikea dish for information.
Best wishes
Helen

Post by: kitty-kat1234 on August 29, 2011, 07:54:00 AM: Well i like your pieces,even if ikea!

The reason i asked if they were similar to the Holmegaard is i have 20th century glass book by Judith Miller,so i had something to compare yours with in my hands ;D
Plus without any label perhaps this is what courses some to think Holmegaard.

Cheers for taking the time to post,now i have to see someone about a fish ;D
