Topic: Please need ID perhaps CZ or BRD

[Glas Vasen]

Hello GMB

I  need ID of these two Vases
I guess is the same Designer any one knows about this Vases; Year, Manufacture and the Designer.

I Saw some similar on Frantisek Vizner, but the Neck are very Different to this one’s

Thank You for your Time

[Ivo]

I think Borské Sklo, but I would not dare to go to the details where other people go..

Hi Ivo
Yes I thought too Borské Sklo but as I saw this Image with all the Different Vases and Colours none of them compare to my one.

Image exhibition from  August 2008

Vizner I doubt very much. Borske Sklo is possible. A similar design, but without a neck (which might be the same one you've seen), is pictured in Mark Hill's book, Hi Sklo Lo Sklo. However, he points out that the style was widely copied. I come across quite a few similar pieces and some are definitely not Borske Sklo. The protruding bobbles on this look a bit larger than the ones on Borske Sklo pieces.

I try to explain, but don’t be frighten about my English spelling.


I noticed that the foot small round texture have and go to the mouth and they get larger and larger, which tells me it is mouth-blown. (I think)
But as you see it (two Images) has a cross and the four line run up to the mouth too. Like Pressglass
So I have no Idea about this Technic

The texture is inside and outside is very smooth


P.S. Do u understand it  :or:

Sergio:

Your English is fine. Much better than my French, German, Italian, and the list goes on.

I understand what you are saying. The piece is blown using a mould for at least part of the process. The blowing can continue after the piece is removed from the mould, and often there is more expansion at the top of the glass.  So, the section at the top could have bigger protrusions/knobbles than the section at the bottom.

Hi langhaugh and the texture on the inside, the protrusions I can feel only internally from the vessel or corpus, Is this Technic like the Sommerso with Overlay Glass (outside from the corpus is plain)

Ahh bay the way I saw ur webpage  Czechoslovakia: Harrachov incl Harrtil (637) I've bought on the last Saturday he sold it for a Murano Vase   

                                                         one less for ID.....….

On your Unknown Glass I coul’t ID one  :thud:


Sergio ...... 01:28 good night

Interesting piece that Harrtil one. I've been wondering if it was one of the Harrtil pieces done by another factory.  For example, look at the similarities between it and this piece from Exbor. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=250784961727&si=tQHCo3%252Fyyzq7LyFelC%252B%252BmNJEnK0%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT#ht_849wt_1141

Did Harrachov do facetted glass, for example?

Did you recognize one of my unknown pieces? Please tell, if you did.

Morning langhaugh

Bohemian has a lot Cut glass, like u say Exbor, but uncommon in a diamond shape this Cut I see on the Venice Manufacture.

Many Glass Master have left Venice to work for Scandinavia and Bohemian glassworks, as well the Czech masters Study/Worked in Venice too. And the Expo’s & Exhibitions have his Influence to the Glass Designer.

At the moment i not much know about Harrachov Glassworks it must be Interesting, he have the unique historical glass-cutting shop, 100 years old.


A small Story about Bohemia region
In the region of Bohemia was wood in abundance, so that many glassworks were (close together lying), then, when the forests clearing also increased the price of wood, so that conversion to glass finishing, grinding it takes no ovens, so no wood, as The first gas stoves developed ~1946, prosperity the region for the production of mouth-blown glass as well as the industrialization of glassmaking.

P.S. langhaugh yours Unknown Glass isn’t that much, u want my Unknowns there is a lot more as yours.

I thought No. 579 was an Iittala http://www.iittala.com/web/Iittalaweb.nsf/en/products_decorating_claritas

like the No. 478 (Tapio Wirkkala)but when I made the comparison I was disappointed dose are not identical.

They did, and that's definetly a Harrtil piece. There are pics of them in CGR 1955 or 1956 that can be found at Jindrich's site:
