This was a birthday present to myself (big day was on Saturday just gone). Found on eBay AU, the bidding was running hot but I snagged it at the last moment.
Made from cased spatter glass in light orange with dark orange vertical lines & a dark oxblood bottom up spatter, the biscuit barrel measures around 16 cm tall. There is a silver coloured metal lid & handle, which also features a red Bakelite grip.
It still retains the original FWK label.
Made by Welz, Art Deco era.
Beautiful biscuit barrel and Happy Belated Birthday!! Mine was on Easter Sunday.
Many thanks, Scott! And a belated Happy Birthday to you too...seems like there are a few Aries folks on CW...
Happy Birthday ,Marin!The present is amazing!
Happy birthday and to celebrate life
Beautiful welz and a happy birthday!!

Thanks so much, Ivonne!
Much appreciated, kivatinitz!
Thanks also, Scott!
Belated Birthday Greetings. Snap! Even down to the jagged shards rather than the spots you usually get on the décor 'Lines and Spots'. I particularly love household items in Welz décors.
Much appreciated Peggy, & hope you had a great day too!
Thought you would enjoy this one, I've long admired yours & couldn't quite believe my eyes when this turned up on eBay! I had to go for it!
Agree about the jagged shards, I almost made a reference to them in my post, but was in a hurry. They are pretty cool!
I am sort of using it for something like it's intended purpose, there is a packet of Coconut Roughs inside...from our local artisan chocolate shop...
There is another cool piece of Welz coming my way in the next few weeks, a rarer decor with an iridescent finish...you have some examples but that's all I'm giving away at present! :-)
Thanks Marin, I did have a great day too. Particularly the meal out, one of the grandchildren talks non stop and is an absolute card.
I think just this décor and Opalescent Lines have shards. Now I'm going to look at my shelves and see if I can guess what delight is coming to your home soon. :)
