Alienware Don? That's a new one on me. Mind you, I know almost nothing about pottery. Art nouveau amphora search seems to be giving me the most...
Indeed, WDIK! Thanks Judy
Thanks CD. I think it is a pencil mark but is no more readable in the flesh than what you're seeing in the photo. Forgive my ignorance but what's...
Looks like something out of Lord of the Rings. The person I got it from thought it was early 20th century but was just guessing. Any ideas?...
The mystery has been solved thanks to the wonderful Pamela at http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de It's from the Globus range by Brockwitz, 1926....
Thanks Rastella. Definitely in the ballpark. I can't believe this is being so difficult. Surely I can't have the only bowl in the world like this....
It is ground on the base rim. A little nibbled too. Not sure I'd go as far to say it's polished though.
I saw that Challinor Taylor one. It looks massive in their pics but it's only around 7" across. And it's not that because there are too many small...
I thought it might be Sowerby as they made some similarly glamorous bowls with a similar oval boat shape but I can't find one with this pattern.

I have this gorgeous oval bowl but can't find another like it to see who made it. Any ideas? Thanks. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Interesting! Thank you.
It looks like a lot of Devon ware pottery I've seen. Possibly the better end of the scale than Motto ware.
You could be right. It's slap bang in the middle but it's the only mark on the thing. And it's a utility item rather than decorative so I suspect...
Anyone recognise this horse mark? It's on an old copper mould. Thanks. [ATTACH]
Thanks SBSVC. Shame my thingummy isn't pictured there. I guess that would have been too big an ask. Added - I have found a similarly moose-styled...
Thanks all. So, whittling it down - most likely pewter, made in Stockholm in 1938. Now for tackling those initials! Added - B H Edlund. I do...
Thanks - St Erik would make sense. Bakersgma - why do you doubt the M8 being the date marker? It was the only thing I actually thought I'd...
Thanks but I don't think it's quite as literal as that because they do make silver stuff too. And might use other metals. I wondered if this was...
