the company was well known for making high quality pressed glass. Some of their flint and coloured glass has been attributed to sowerby of gateshead.
walther sold their cloud glass under the trade name oralit. The name brings to mind davidson's ora red cloud glass. It is not clear whether there was any business relationship between the two companies. It is more likely that the walther company was trying to associate it's products with davidson's well established cloud glass line. The oralit range appears to have been started in 1932, a few years after davidson introduced ora.

this large three-footed platter has a wavy edge and a moulded pattern on the underside.
