Beautiful pair of Chance Brothers Ltd on Copenhagen Denmark Art Crystal Glass with an artistic Op Art off-center gold overlay swirl pattern.
The glass blanks are from the Copenhagen Denmark Crystal and Art Glass company, as depicted on the attached labels.
Of all the designs produced by Chance Brothers for their Fiestaware, there\'s no doubt that \'Swirl\' epitomised the avant-garde styles of the 1950s & 1960s. The Swirl design is dated from 1955 - 1965.
One frustrating point about Swirl is the lack of a designers name. While it is often assumed to be Margaret Casson, there is no evidence to support this.
This pair of plates / trays are both in excellent vintage condition.
The circular plate, in outstanding condition with NO chips, NO flea bites, NO cracks, NO repairs, and NO gold overlay loss, is 6.25\" across and rises out the outer edge to 7/8\" depth
The smaller square tray is in very good condition showing only a small 1/4\" chip along the lower left edge. Pics are provided. This square tray is 4.5\" wide at the corners, flaring down to 4-3/8\" at the center side, almost 3/4\" tall at the corners. This flaring gives this square dish a beautiful presentation to the eye.
This delicate pair of trays would do fine as display items, or would present beautifully when serving petits fours to 4 or 8 of your best friends at a tea party.
