This is a pair of I'd say crimped bon bon dishes by Imperial in the "grape" pattern. They are thinly moulded and don't have a great depth of colour, a very pale marigold over uranium green base. Size is 6" x 2" and I'd guess date from the mid 1920's.
appears to be from the c1910-29 Bargain Book; 4735C berry and the color Helios is described as silvery iridescence on green glass
Thanks TallCakes, I did think they might be Helios but the colour didn't seem to match the pieces I've seen but it still might be, I'll have another look. The marigold colour doesn't really show up in photos.
marigold is typically on clear glass
Thanks again TallCakes, they are actually two slightly different colours, one has a silvery iridescence which I think is Helios, the other is more of a gold but I think it's probably Helios too.
so nice and so old
