Skrdlovice collectors thread, part II
Anik R:
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Michael!!!!! Absolutely super pieces. I just LOVE the bear, and the Zertova is a beauty.
Oh dear, I'm so jealous -- but, of course, in the most sincere and sweetest way. You really outdid yourself this time. Your collection is the best. :-*
rocco:
Thank you ;)
I was so happy about finding the Zemek piece -- whenever I had looked through the 1954 pattern book I got caught on the drawing of the bear ashtray.
Much easier to remember that pattern than one of the dozens similarish ashtrays with pulled lobes ;D

I wanted to show off my Jindrich Beranek paperweight. It's only 9cm tall but weighs 1089g. Robert very kindly told me that the colours suggest a date of c.1960. Normally, I'm not very fond of soft hues, but they look great on this piece. :)
rocco:
Very nice, Anik -- this must be one of the earliest paperweight designs then.
I love the soft colours, too :)

I'm excited about the newest addition to my Skrdlovice collection... a wonderful Karel Wunsch 8214 bowl with a folded rim. What makes the design special is that though it looks like a deep bowl (even when you look in), the inner well is exceptionally shallow -- something you only realise when you reach in. The optic effect is fabulous.
My bowl is 16.5cm wide, 8cm tall and weighs 2122g.
Oooo and I found it here in Poland. :)
