Pressed glass vases - pattern for ID please = Walther
« on: December 27, 2010, 07:09:49 PM »
Bought these in a Pontefract charity shop, but I'm sure they're not by Bagley.  The lozenge pattern is familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.

Tall vase 22cm tall.
Short vase 10 cm tall, with distinctive 8-point star to the base.

Can anyone help?
Thanks

The Walther catalogue 1925 has a creamer set (sugar bowl, creamer and tray) with this design, as well as a two-piece fruit bowl, part of which was also catalogued separately as a "grape rinser"!
http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Walther-1925.77.0.html  pp 49 and 50

The creamer set was catalogued until 1933, but with a wildly different pattern number.

Walther called it "Ideal".

And a matching butter/cheese dish and a comport in the 1931 catalogue.

Your vase is on page 81 (Vasen 2) of the 1925 catalogue
