Circa: 1950s-1970s
Manufacturer: Gerte Hacker, Cleveland, OH
Done by well known enamel artist Gerte Hacker of Cleveland Ohio, this 5 1/2 inch wide green triangular bowl is from her #200 Dahlia line. It features the use of gold lines to create the petals of the dahlia flower and a central area of white, black, red and turquoise small dots or jewels to create the center of the flower. There is a white edge like on Edward Winter's pieces. The back is counterenameled in a rich reddish brown color and her full name is signed in gold.
The piece is in excellent condition and a good investment as signed enamel pieces are taking off in today's marketplace.
