The one with two ladies: definitely NOT Walther - I loved to know the maker also  ???

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

Hi Pamela,

The mecury vase does glow under my UV torch and the two ladies glow as well.

It seems to be a variation on the Walther Windsor so may be Czech? as the moulding is very good especially the face with the nose.

I love the colour of your vase Pamela, are your ladies frosted, as my are not?

I think your second vase was the one I saw some years ago marked "Tchechoslovakie". At the time I mistook it for Walther (misread the German on Siegmar Geiselberger's site...  :-[
