Hi Everyone.

Hope all is well.

It looks like a 1930's Loetz iridescent swirl vase from the pics?

There is a similar one here.


Not exactly sure of date i have found some listed as 30's and Art Nouveau 1900's

Rach, i'm no expert ,wait for someone else's point of view, the listing in that link could be wrong.

Hi Rachael, I would be very surprised if these bowls were Loetz, however, certainly of the period and Bohemian. Kralik would be my first point of call.

Can we have a photo of the base please and another with the camera level with the vase showing the profile?

No idea if this was made by Kralik or not, I think many of these patterned vases are 'unknown' at present. There must be quite a few contenders for maker.

Thank you, these patterns tend to show up well on the bases.

Your vase may well be the same maker as this one, the trouble is we don't know who at present: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,48607.0.html

Are there any markings on the metal band to indicate what kind of metal it might be?

I agree with everyone else that eastern European - likely in the Czech/Bohemian area - sounds right and that there are several makers who did this kind of glass as it was a commercially popular type at the time.
