Cobalt Blue Cut to Clear Crystal Bowl
« on: September 10, 2010, 02:26:07 pm »
I have this Cobalt Blue Cut to Clear Lead Crystal (Etched) Bowl that I received from my father as a Wedding gift.  It doesn't have any markings or labels and I am curious to know if anyone has any information such as origin, designer etc,.
Bowl Measures Approximately 6 1/2" in Diameter and is quit heavy.  Thanks for your time and consideration.

Angel I believe you have a piece produced by Lausitzer Glashutte AG made in the German Democratic republic (East Germany)  Pieces produced by them had only a sticker as a makers mark. They produced beautiful  lead crystal  pieces. Try searching Lausitzer glass / crystal and see what you can find.  good luck ;)

Yes indeed Wendy177, it is a Bohemian Lausitzer Cut Crystal Cobalt Bowl Made In Germany.  I found one with a slight variation on the placement of the roses otherwise it's exact.  I have had possession of this bowl for 16 years and finally I know it's History.  Thank you so much, everyone for your help.  I truly appreciate it.  Now, on to yet another mystery object that I am dying to know all about. 
I LOVE THIS WEBSITE!!  ;D

Beat me to it Wendy!  Great job.

Just now getting back to the forum after a family trip to see family!  Terrible internet there(I am SOOOOOOOOO spoiled).
I'm from the South - but please don't mistake my Southern Manners/Accent/Charm as a weakness!
