Title: 2 large blue to clear bowl - Murano?
Post by: heartofsklo on September 08, 2011, 03:51:52 PM
The tall bowl measures 22 cm tall, the wide bowl measures 9cm tall and  35.5cm across. No marks to the bases which are both flat.

They might not be Murano. We've discussed several similar shaped patterned bowls as possibly by the Bayel factory in France. If you search on the forum for Bayel, you might find several threads that discuss these. Also, I think the general idea was used by other factories, possibly Scandinavian or Belgian (there is another thread where a Swedisch Sea piece is shown with a similar technique).

Bottom one might be by Magnor, or not.  :pb:

sorry for having to introduce the I word. I'm not saying these are 100% - but Ikea are guilty of many things...

Thanks again Tigerchips. Certainly look as if it is Magnor.

The age use related base scars in this case I feel rules out modern Ikea et al (not proof positive I know, before someone pulls me up on it).
