Title: Hi Is this a Rosaline Alabaster Stevens + Williams, Steuben or similar bowl pls?
Post by: chriss on October 07, 2015, 10:36:50 AM

Hi
I've got a bowl or dish, very pretty soft colours of a milky white fading to a pink which I believe is Rosaline Alabaster? From what I've seen on google images and a few data bases that I found, Stevens and Williams and Steuben were noted for this type of glass but I've not found anything like the shape apart from a slightly similar smaller variation described as a Stevens and Williams salt on ebay, but I've also seen images of rosaline alabaster where the person who posted it, said it was Murrano? This one is nearly 5" diagonally across the widest point in the top, and stands nearly 3" tall.
Can anyone give me any info about this bowl/dish please?
Many thanks Chriss  :)

Hi Kieth, thanks for your reply :) Do you know if the pink top section is Rosaline please? I've found Alabastro glass on 20th century glass encyclopedia by Archimede Seguso (and other murano glass houses) which looks similar in colour? I have also found a great (I think) photographic database for Steuben on the Carder Steuben Club, and in that, shape 7535 is similar (ish) but not the same? I can't find any sort of photographic data base about S & W on the internet yet. Thanks Chriss
