I have a couple of these.  They are very heavy and I think they are beautiful.  Yours look wonderful as a group  :)

I have seen one that looks like an Apple Tree, also have the taller wave solifleur. I think your collection would look great with a single different coloured flower in each. I'm a big softie at heart ;)

Nice collection!

Just in case anyone wants to know, I can confirm that all of these are German. The flower patterned on the left, the satinated white and pink one and the green/red and the two similar ones on the right are Walther, the square one with coiling snake is Ingrid Glass, the triangle and the multi-vertical lined one are Wiesenthalhütte.

They are all so lovely Helga and yours is a whopper Petet63. 

Thanks for telling us the makers Astrid, very useful, as eBay is always getting them wrong!

I haven't started collecting vases yet, I only have about a dozen 'normal' ones, cos I put flowers in them (and get told off!!)
But if I were to start collecting, this is just the sort of vase I would collect.
Thank you for sharing.  :)
