    I bought two lovely large plates, here is one - it is 22" (huge) in diameter at the largest leaf, 21 at the indentation. The front of the plate is smooth, the back has very little color and is textured in the way that resembles the design, I am sure this is easy for the experts out there, I've looked at my glass books and cannot ascertain, my collecton is mostly identifiable, well, some are not signed, yet I know where they come from. Thanks for your help. This is one of two, both are, I believe, are same style, date, and so on. Thanks again for your help!

      Just as a general idea Swedian these look like pressed glass with coloured glass flashed, or thinly coated, onto them. Very funky!

      hanks, sorry for the delay, I will look around, pressed was the closest to others, but 22" in diameter? The lady I purchased them from said they were from around the 40's or 50s which fit, but they are flawless...not a nick or scratch at all. But I'll keep looking.
