They are actually quite wonderful, Linda - objectively as good, I think, as earlier pieces, so my comment on the blue is not in any way meant to distract from the merit of this pair. I re-posted them on our EJ&A Facebook page, and they immediately attracted a lot of praise and attention. Superbly made and very beautiful.

You can definatly see a difference in color and workmanship on these from earlier examples I have had how ever these are still quite good by comparison to the newer ones I have seen for sale.

I would agree, LInda: 50s-60s - unlikely to be much earlier. But they are beautifully made, and actually interesting in part because they differ from earlier examples. I personally find the blue just a trifle to light and sharp to my taste, but it is still very fine, even so.

thanks, They are probably 50's or 60's could be earlier but not by much.

These are always some of my favorites.  Great color and coral on these!
