Quite a heavy piece of amethyst coloured glass, I know I should recognise the shape but it illudes me  :cry:

Measures almost 20cm.

It looks very similar to a vase Jindrich has in his "Questions - Solved Issues" section - http://www.webareal.cz/ceskoslovenskesklo/8-ZEPTEJTE-SE-QUESTIONS/15-Vyresene-solved-issues/0/0/0/discussion-all/136#bott136 

Rosice 5123/200 from 1969, designer unknown for the time being.  But I strongly suggest you wait for confirmation from someone more knowledgable than 'moi'  :-\.

Hi,
it's a Gent vase, made by Lausitzer Glaswerke, see Pamela's site Glas-Musterbuch:

Aw Dirk, you're such a  show-off  :ac1:

But you're obviously right.  (One question, though...  is the person who posted this vase (see link) as confused as I am?  Is it also a "gent" vase? http://www.antiques-international.ch/sklo_d/index.php?m=03&y=10&d=21&entry=entry100301-112756)

You live and learn  :)

What is a "Gent" Vase?  :tof:

I know glass comes in different shapes, styles, and colors -- now different Sexes?  Oh, I will never learn all of this... :thud:

 :24:  No wonder my China Cabinet *seems* to be producing more glass every time I look in it -- now I know why...

Umm, just under the vase in question, in the link posted by Anik,

http://www.antiques-international.ch/sklo_d/index.php?m=03&y=10&d=21&entry=entry100301-112756

there's an amber tumbler, said to be by Rosice, (no designer) but it looks awfully like Inwald's Jacobean.

Now I am lost, possibly there are some differences, in Marcus database is only drwaing of Rosice 5123, same height 200 mm...
Glass attributiongis sometimes very exciting :-)

I think you´ve made an important point, Jindrich. I´ve also found it hard sometimes to recognise the pieces in flesh from the
line drawings in the SU catalogues.
A pointer concerning this vase is the much less carefully ground base - not czech high quality.  ;)

What a relief...  now I don't feel so silly giving a wrong attribution  :)

It's interesting that both the Rosice and Lausitzer Glaswerke vase were produced in 1969.  I wonder, if they are indeed different vases, what they look like side by side, and base by base.
