Hi,
I believe it's a Milos Filip vase for Nemsova, pattern number 2002, c. 1963, but I suggest you wait for confirmation from someone more knowledgable.

(see http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,22552.0.html)

absolutely correct Anik, jsut few words about Milos Filip

Milos Filip (*3. 10. 1926 Prostějov, +7.3. 1966 Praha)

1946 - 1950   Glassmaking school in Kamenicky Senov
1950 - 1956   VÅ UP Praha, prof. Karel Å tipl
1956 - 1959   sculpturist and artist
1959 - 1966   disigner Institute for the Culture of Housing and Clothing (ÚBOK)

Milos Filip was extremaly talented designer, dead young by suicide.
As always: search for the woman, in this case she was another excellent designer, the most pretty glass designer of 60ties - Miloslava Svobodova.

Thank you, Jindrich...  what a terribly sad and lonely end for Mr. Filip.  Just goes to show how destructive and ugly this farce we call love is.

Hi... you've got me wondering about the size(s) too.  Was this vase only made as 25cm?

I have seen two of these in the past, both the 25cm size, one dark green, one yellow.
(Unfortunately both chipped, so not in my collection)

There is also a blue one in Hi Sklo Lo Sklo.

(Michael, you don't have any chipped pieces in your Czech pressed glass collection?      When I started collecting about a year ago, I was very intolerant about any damage to my glass.  The slightest knick got me nervous.  Now, I will buy a piece even if it isn't perfect, only because I love the design and am pessimistic enough to think I might never find another one...)

Anik, I do buy slightly chipped pieces, but it depends on how severe the damage is, how much I like the piece, and the price of course...
If a small chip is only visible on very close inspection I usually don't mind.
Heavy wear to the bottom or some scratching to the surface I regard as signs of age :)

(During the past few weeks everything desirable I saw on the fleamarkets was chipped, quite disappointing. So a nice Gangkofner vase, a Borskle Sklo Nemo vase with stripes instead of dots, and a Murano vase I quite liked had to stay where they were).

Does anyone know the source of the Nemsova attribution... looks a little shaky to me! Could they be Rosice?
