About Kingfisher
Made by Crown Crystal of Australia, these large and small bowls are primarily found in dark (amethyst) carnival glass and to a lesser extent marigold. The sauces (called nappy's) are easier to find in marigold than the larger bowls.The large bowls are typically 9 to 10 inches across. The small bowls are about 5 to 6 inches across. Both size bowls have 12 ruffles, a plain exterior and a ground base. There is a variant with more leaves and berries added.
