Beautiful Bride's Bowl... who made it?
« on: June 01, 2008, 03:32:36 AM »
Hi, I have this lovely 11 1/2 inch diameter, enameled bride's bowl and am having trouble with who made it (as well as how to classify it). 





The enameling is exquisite and the glass coloring just as shown in the photos at those urls.  Any help would greatly be appreciated!!
Thanks!

Those links don't work and cause an attempt to install something, moderators advised.

I'm not getting an installation message, but for some reason Firefox 2 is downloading the images rather than opening them as it should do. I *think* it's because auctiva images have some extra data in them to make them default to 400x300 pixels in size and the browser gets confused and tries to download them instead. There doesn't appear to be anything nasty going on Frank.  :)

Sorry Frank, I should have said that, I did tweak the code to show the images. :)

Wow, beautiful piece!  Great colors.

Bride's bowls usually stump me, I'm afraid.  I've often thought it would be an interesting little study to look at the different crimping patterns used by various companies.
