this was a patent registered in 1934

It doesn't appear to be saying much different to the Franz Welz patent - but I am very much a layman.

This article written in 1912 acknowledges Franz Welz's patent being '21 years ago' i.e. 1891 - please see first and second paragraphs where this is described in detail.

edited to add - and certainly it appears to me, red glass using selenium was created much earlier than the 1920s.

mm, I have now completely thought myself out of the Regenhutte possibility and I'm not at all keen on Romanian since I cannot find a single thing that might indicate this.  But I will explore this as an option now.  Were the pieces you saw identical Ivo including colour please?
Thanks

[Ivo]

Yes absolutely.

with regard the use of selenium in glass in the 1890s:

in describing Schreiber and Neffen production:
'For example luxury pink coloured glass called 'Lachsrosa' has been produced since 1892, when the selenium dye technology was patented by the owner of the Glass works Franz Welz from Hrob near Teplice'

Lachsrosa = salmon pink.

Ivo said
'I have seen this bottle on antique marketS on three different occasions. One dealer told me he thought it was from Romania which I am willing to believe. Alternative is of course Regenhütte.
The Selenium red and Cadmium and sulphur yellow is a 'strike' colour which is produced on reheating - which the Welz patent excludes. I would place this colour much later, more in the Frederick Carder era.'

I think not Romanian but Ukrainian folk glass maybe 1948 ish see attached pics:

The attached picture is mine from my own exhibition catalogue pages.
The pink piece was made by Piotr Semenenko and was one of his first pieces appearing at an exhibition of Ukrainian folk art in 1948.

See also the green enamelled decanter in this link - clearly a shape they favour

Re my post above, I meant to say that it was Ivo's suggestion which led me to re-look at Ukrainian glass.

Here on this blog about Ukraine are some pieces with the variegated orangey selenium glass

They are different and look more recent than my piece but that handle appears to be a 'marker' in some way.
