To identify small amber vase please!!!
« on: November 09, 2008, 04:30:12 PM »
Could any one identify this small vase, which was sold as Czech Sklo Union 1959 - 1960 probably designed by Rudolph Schroiter????  The vase is 8 cm high x 10 cm wide and the base is like a bird bath: deep, oval concave.  Although the vase is amber, in certain lights, it looks like a pink champagne colour.  Thanks B

I'm sure Marcus will be able to tell you more of these when he returns from the book launch B, but yes they are Sklo Union: http://www.sklounion.com/SkloID.html (scroll down to the bottom of the page.)

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)

(Just for those who cannot read my reply above,) the return of the Invisible Man.... ;D ;D

Yes, Czech, Sklo Union, probably, but designer currently unknown.

Marcus (no PhD, so sadly cannot call myself Dr) Who?? ;D ;D ;D
