Title: Jobling Flower Pattern salad set - amazing design
Post by: Bernard C on January 07, 2007, 07:33:38 AM

Last night, at dinner, we used our late 1930s Jobling 6000 Flower Pattern flint salad set, and I noticed what happened to the surplus water from the green leaf salad.

I was amazed, as it was so elegant and unexpected.

If anyone is interested, I will attempt some pictures, and try to explain it.   I will also try it out on our unfrosted green set from stock to see if it is the same.   Let me know.

BTW these are the only two sets I have ever seen.   Does anyone know of any others, particularly other patterns / colours / finishes?

Hi Bernard, I'd like to see that very much also! Is the base high in the center? (which would also allow to safely place a flower block into the bowl?) Or is the base perforated quite invisibly as in some Saxonian Strawberry bowls with underplate (visible)  ;D http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/schalen/01709.html  ???

Bumping to ask Bernard, is the salad set the bowl with three holes with a large underplate to match? If so, I've seen one today in unfrosted blue. Bernard, could you add pics of yours please?

Edited 10.4.2015 to add a link to an image of the Jobling 6000 salad bowl which Bernard asked about in this topic.
