Title: Langenthal - Swiss
Post by: josordoni on August 21, 2007, 05:18:05 PM

I have three pieces of this design - they came in a mixed ceramics lot at auction - one is marked Langenthal Suisse, the others unmarked, but obviously the same design.  Does anyone recognise the design and can give me a name and rough date?  The beaker has the Langenthal mark, the vase has an impressed number 419/2, nothing at all on the pin dish.

Thanks for any help!

Hi Kev, yes I looked at all the Bopla range, but couldn't see anything similar.  Good idea to contact them, I'll report back.

Got a nice reply from Langenthal today.... nice in that they replied, but not nice in its content...

Dear Lynne

Thanks for the pictures sent. We unfortunately do not know the pattern; it
is possible that somebody bought the white porcelain and decorated it
himself.

The pieces are not part of Bopla! Black& White collection.

Sorry for no more news.

Best regards,

so we're back to stage one....
