Glass / Uranium Opaline Vase
« Last post by NevB on June 04, 2025, 11:41:47 AM »Here's a lovely 5" tall uranium opaline vase. The colour to the naked eye is actually a pale lemon yellow/ cream. I can't find one similar but I think it's Bohemian, the decoration is similar to pieces attributed to Carl Goldberg, it could be a Harrach blank. The rim is fire polished.

Glass / Lovely cut crystal tray - ID please
« Last post by chilternhills on June 03, 2025, 11:31:12 AM »This tray is lovely quality hand cut crystal. With brilliant cut crystal one thinks American, but I have no definite idea. Your assistance is appreciated. The tray measures 30.5 cm long, 21.5 cm wide, and 3 cm deep.

Do you know where we could see or obtain a copy of the catalogue?

Glass / Re: Hillston Crystal - second example found in 4 years
« Last post by Frank on June 02, 2025, 04:26:35 PM »This is probably from their 3027 Finest English Cut Crystal Suite. Sizes were 6 1/2" Hock, 5 1/2" Tall Goblet, 5" Tall Champagne, 4 1/4" Claret, 3 3/4" Sherry, 3 7/8" Cocktail, 3 5/8" Port and 3" Liqueur.
From Catalogue #34, dated 1960.
also in #29 1956/7, #33 1958
Not in #26 1954
So yours would date from 1955 at earliest and continued to be available at least until 1960. There was a similar design range, slightly more complex from the 1930's which yours obviously replaced

« Last post by keith on June 01, 2025, 10:57:53 PM »Will have to check but I think this mark was first used in the 1930s and was in use up to the 50s, could we see the whole thing ?
