Ravenhead - Lancashire

Cheers Davee

Hi, please help - I have a set of 6 bowls, 4” across.
Smooth inside, ribbed on upper part, textured a bit like ridged ice pattern below and on base which is concave. Ribbed foot.
English ? Scandinavian?  

Thanks

Yep, Ravenhead Topaz bowls designed by John Clappison. Lots on eBay.

Heavy, ice style vase or candle holder. Looks like the Finland Littala Stellaria ice pieces of glass but I can’t find it online so maybe something else?
6.25” tall, looks moulded not blown.

I have an idea from somewhere, that Dartington did things like this.

You could be right. I found similar stuff but not the same piece. There’s lots of Dartington stuff here in Totnes.

Well done, Ravenhead Flair range cactus glass.
Thanks Naomi!

Boxed (in the loosest definition of boxed) set of 6 1970's Ravenhead amber tumblers, Venice shape (P967) from the Vista range. Each glass has just 'England' on the underside, which proved bloody difficult to photograph; the word just isn't very photogenic I suppose, or maybe camera shy, but no matter how clearly the glasses came out the 'England' was always blurred.
The box was in that rather distressed condition when I bought the glasses around 6-7 years ago for pennies at a boot sale, but I suppose owt's better than nowt. The plastic fitted inner, which has the shape number included in the moulding, is still in fairly good nick if a little grubby. I love the back of the box, a picture not unlike those tacky (or kitsch) pictures with lights behind that look as though the water is actually moving that were only ever seen on walls in Chinese restaurants, or in the 'Top Prize' selection in seaside bingo halls.
