Featured a few chazza vases/pieces

hi folks

a few pieces i found at the chazzas this week, think the italian was £3, the bakelite £1 and the spanish? £1

the (i think italian) one i put back twice but something made me pick up again and buy. i've seen quite a few of these flowery types and don't like them, but something seemed a bit better about this one, marked 2 base

thought the bakelite one was interesting as i've never seen decorated bakelite before, this sort of thing never really sells like jewelry does i've found, not sure whats is supposed to be for

the little spanish pot i thought just looked well made

any info or thoughts on any would be a great help

 

Italian may be Fratelli Fanciullati. Bakelite is neat. Spanish one is older, pre euro. Hermanos means brothers. That might be Rueda after it.

 

great stuff, thanks obb

 

First one is so colorful, love it. Would be sweet with a bouquet!

Wondering if that second one is actually Bakelite. I see a scratch on it (3rd photo) which seems to be revealing a lighter color. Thinking this might be made of a different kind of plastic.

 

I was thinking the same thing. The base is molded in a way I don't associate with bakelite, for starters.

 

I'm reading 'Hermanos Uveda'
As the V is pronounced as a B in Spain (and in some parts of Portugal), sometimes people end up writing words that should have B with a V, thinking that the B is just the way it's pronounced and that the word should be written with a V. (or they write words as they pronounce it. I've seen a sign once with 'bende-se quibis', instead of 'vende-se quivis', Portuguese for 'kiwis for sale')
So this could be a misspelled 'Hermanos Ubeda'

 

And it can be dated by the pesetas. Pre-2002.

Here's another piece by Hermanos Ubeda.

Given the pomegranate motif, thought they might be Granada-based. Went looking and found I was right. Workshop in Purullena.

Yup, I said it was pre euro! I could not decipher that surname for the life of me.

 

great bit of info, thanks Deb

 

yeah i've had a few other pieces like this before a dinner tray and ashtray and they are bakelite, you can smell it without needing to test it, think they did tobacco jars as well, can't work out what this was supposed to be for though

 

ah, there you go

like i said, theres no value in these utility type bakelite pieces

 

not sure i go along with the date stated on this one, the ones i don't like are 1970s ish, so hard to put a date on mine

Oh good grief. It screams sixties into seventies.
