And here's another Kralik bowl, just for good measure. Slightly different in a more commonly seen millefiori decor style. The surface of this one is iridized with the millefiori over a subtle purple spatter.
When I got my hands on this the interior was covered in old, very stubborn limescale, so I bought a limescale remover (an expensive one, like too expensive to use in your shower!!!) from my local hardware store, tested it on a small area and it was amazing - removed it all in just 2 mins, plus some bloody skin with it - I exaggerate, but it did sting!
like the shape of the bowl & decor thanks for sharing philmac51
Thanks Malkey... still loving all the backdrops to your pieces...
uuugh I need that please send me the exact name of the lime stuff
I knew someone would come on asking what it was.
I'll find out tomorrow Jericho and let you know - I can always send you some, if it will go through customs.
Very nice one Phil, congrats.
Regards
Alan
Thanks Alan
The bowl is gorgeous......and I too would like to know the name of the product.
OK, so Peggy, you have a better chance of getting hold of it locally, I'll post here tomorrow - Marigolds are essential!
Phil, is it in powder or liquid.
Is this a discaler ?, we all gone stay tune till tomorrow, lol
Hi Al - it's liquid, you don't wanna be scrubbing your precious babies with no powder!!
If it's a problem finding this stuff over the pond I will at least give you the ingredients and maybe contact the manufacturers to see if it's sold US/Canada under a different name.... leave it with me.
Yes - descaler..
I know for not scrubbing with powder, but at Home Depot , discaler coming in 2 form ; powder and liquid, the powder it's just more concentrated,that's why I ask , thk
No problem Alan, I'll let you know what it is tomorrow - it's pretty powerful stuff.
Another beauty Phil.
I've seen this decor on many Kralik bowls, and this one is hands-down my favorite!
Thanks Rick for all you comments on my pieces
