Hi everyone,
After never coming across this type of glass before two turn up right after each other.
The type of glass and salmon pink colour with cherub theme so closely match the spill vase that I feel sure they must be by the same maker, but I've no idea who that is.
If anyone can say who made them that'd be great.
Comments are always welcome.
Thank you
The cherub's details are awesome.
Thank you Caperkid. I'm a bit perplexed as to why CW re categorised it as Pottery, I know it looks like pottery but am sure it's a type of glass. Even more perplexing after they re catagorised the spill from Art Glass to Glassware :-S they're definitely made of the same material, probably by the same maker.
Definitely glass. I've since found two other items in salmon pink with gold edging, looking like they're all by the same maker and all described as Victorian milk glass. It's the first time I've known CW make a mistake, I guess even CW are fallible.
I guess the best way to prove its glass is to include a photo with a light inside the jug.
The jug should then let the light through like a glass lampshade !
Hi Phil, thank you for your comment & suggestion :) here's a photo with the light showing through it. Though light can pass through porcelain also so I'm not sure it's fool proof. I'll post another jug I have, which, if it weren't for its feet I would've sworn was china, it even has a rough 'unglazed' area inside the bottom.
Wow you are so lucky! They are really beautiful!
