Title: Strathern glass bowl.
Post by: mrs vulture on September 28, 2013, 06:53:12 PM

Hi, Picked this lovely green bowl up on the car boot today for a pound. I didn't know what it was until I got home. I found out from the leaping salmon mark on the base that it a piece of Strathearn. Its six inches across and three and a half inches tall. Do these have pattern shape numbers etc like Monart ? Its pale green at the base with red, yellow, white, green and blue swirly bits and then mottled to the top edge. Does anyone know the age of my bowl please.     Cheers Cheryl
