Title: Libochovice 1700 - cranberry
Post by: Walden on July 24, 2022, 10:38:48 PM

Just caught a glimpse of a partial Libochovice 1700 set on eBay that was for sale for about 30 seconds before it disappeared. The set was clear with " cranberry " lids and edge along the tray, ringholder partial cranberry too. ( not Prismen in case anyone was wondering). Was this something that Libochovice ever did? Or can we chalk it up to someone getting artistic. I managed to grab some screenshots before the whole thing vanished... I'll post them if anyone wants to see what I'm talking about.

Walden, I'd be interested in seeing these please, but as they would be screengrabs of someone else's photos they can't be posted onto the board without the owner's consent.  Could you send me copies so I can see them and try and locate the originals to obtain consent please?  I've never seen a mixed colour set of Libochovice 1700 so far.

That's what I suspected. I've sent them to you.

Well spotted Walden, I've noticed some Cranberry/Amethyst/Purple tinged set photos have been added to the GTS Libochovice 1700 page, not sure if these are the ones you sent to Anne but very nice pieces all the same.

I personally still feel these pieces are Walther Prismen though, as mentioned in my numerous postings about it, do you have any particular reason to be convinced they are Libochovice 1700 Walden?
