Title: Is this Whitefriars? - ID = Whitefriars
Post by: jeanne on April 07, 2018, 08:16:44 AM

Hello everyone
This is my first query for ages on behalf of the Hospice fundraising on the Isle of Wight.
This very heavy shapely amber glass bowl/vase has been donated. The more info we can attach to it, will improve the price we get. It is around 30 cms wide.

Yes, I'm sure, forget the name, James Hogan and William Wilson, 1940-53.  ;D

Keith is right  -  one of several designs given the name of 'lobed bowls' - and the colour is golden amber - nice piece.

Thank you for the confirmation. I think I am getting better at identification with your help! ;)
