Title: Monart bowl - colour 211?
Post by: orangeglass on March 12, 2015, 08:54:57 AM

Hi,

This is one of my more recent purchase - shape Y size XII (3.75" diameter) - common shape but I love the colourway / bubble pattern. Can anyone confirm it is colour 211?

Thanks!

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH.... ;)

I do love bubbles, especially big beautiful wonky ones in very finely blown glass like this - all the variations in shades of colour they produce, the delicacy of the glass holding the gas, trapped inside...
again, it's the liquid moment of colour in time, frozen for as long as the glass lasts... poetic, artisitic, enlightening, inspiring, delighting...

I'll shut up now.
Thankyou, Keith for this extra treat: :-*
I'm sure Roberta won't mind in the least.

You will have to stop talking like this Sue   :-[
I'm tempted to look out all the bubbled pieces now just to read your comments ;)

I don't mind at all - I love looking at other bubbly pieces - a more unusual colourway that one - most common in blue I believe!

My favorite Monart pieces are the bubbly ones (and the uranium, and the ....... oh lots of them!)

Here's my little bowl next to a big one!
