Just to show Anik that once in a blue moon I can do simple and straightforward. My Skrdlovice blue window.

P.S. Once again, lovely pieces, Astrid.

David, a perfectly subtle display...  super. ;D   But what is the middle piece, please?  I don't recognise it.

By the way, I do like colourful displays, especially when the pieces are tied by a theme -- I just can't handle my own colourful displays.  I don't know what goes well with what, and then come to the conclusion that colour is chaotic and disturbing.   :-X

But I appreciate the great majority of the displays in this thread, even when I don't comment.   :hi:

@Astrid, I think #5 is Harzkristall Derenburg if my memory serves me right....  :)

Anik:

Very different Skrdlovice, a cast glass piece by Hora.

David they look truly handsome!  love the middle piece.
Anik,  by contrast I long to have a sophisticated and subtle clear/pale glass display, yet I cannot seem to have any that don't have a riot of colour, the more the better.  I have to have an amber or yellow, red or deep pink, amethyst, blue and green in all my collections  ;D otherwise to my eye, something is lacking and it looks wrong.  I have a display of glass and ceramics on one table at the moment, that is all amber/ochre and clear or white and it just doesn't 'do' it for me so will shortly be changed.  It's one of the reasons I think I love Welz glass so much, because of the combinations of colour in each piece. Mind you it's the same with my house.  I 'think' in my head I want an all white serene space and then as soon as I get it I need to add brightly coloured silk cushions.

You see m, that's the beauty of this thread -- the diversity of the displays (and glass) is wonderful! 

David, thank you for the extra information about your middle piece.   I'll look it up when I get back home in a few days.  But why haven't you added it to Michael's "My Skrdlovice...." thread with some extra pictures?  Cough, cough, nudge, wink...

I had found a link to something similar before, which was attributed to Marita Voigt. Great that you can confirm the factory, Dirk. Thanks!

Does your vase have both - shiny and matt lenses?

Yes, it has. Similar enough, yes?
