Super Jug and just one glass. Im sure ive seen similar and im sure its English.
1930s,40s or 50s . Really well made, polished pontil (jug) 9 ribbed circles with blue enamel. 7 ribs on glass.
It has a light irridescent finish. I had trouble cleaning grime off this one and was naughty and put it
in the dishwasher, its come out like new! (apart from age wear and the odd scratch! )

Any ideas??
 Cheers
Andy

Yes, perhaps you were think of Powell. I would look continental.

Hi Andy,

My thoughts go along the line "anything, but English!", sorry.

I wasnt too worried about this bowl, but its bugging me now!

It reminds me of the pictures of the Housewife of the 1950s in her new modern kitchen, which she never left, flowery chintz skirt,  making dinner for the Hubbie in his suit, pipe and slippers 2.4 kids, maybe thats what made me think English.
Now im thinking its a very good quality piece of glass, and could be 30s or 40s.

I will keep looking,
any other suggestions of origin, welcome ;)
Cheers
Andy
