Extraordinarily Unknown Piece

Unknown Rose Container (2)I have absolutely no idea what this might be, or actually, why I bought it.  It is decorative.  I think it must have been part of a dresser set or bathroom set.  Perhaps it was intended to store cotton balls!  I am just guessing.  I always hope that some knowledgeable person will fill me in.

It reminds me of something from the sixties decor.  In great shape, with a wee bit of gold loss.

The funny thing is that my guy comes home form an auction with gorgeous GermanUnknown Rose Container Bayreuth cream soup bowls that have a similar rose on them.  They were almost a match.  The bowls went home with a daughter, but I still have them (for the moment at least).  No idea what I’m going to do with it.  The garage?

Champagne, Needle Etch

Unknown Geometric EtchThis is likely an open champagne or a high sherbert.  I have just one  to add to my needle etch museum!  What I am going to do with these single glasses is a big mystery.

This is an attractive piece.  Nice sharp rim, lovely to hold.

Very graceful stem with the interesting repeated pattern.Unknown Geometric Etch (2)

Coloured Glass, Needle Etch

Unknown Needle Etch on Purple Blank (2)I was staggered to find four of these stems locally in pristine condition.  If you find needle etched pieces in this area, they are generally one offs, and of very simple etching.  These are gorgeous pieces (do I always say that?) and the photos do not do them justice.

Pretty colour with a narrow optic.  I don’t know if they are cordials, sherries or whatever, but they are small, standing 5 14 inches with  a 2 1/4 inch opening.Unknown Needle Etch on Purple Blank

I hope I can identify the etch some day!
