Help me identify this vase please - Exbor label.
« on: November 09, 2015, 08:42:28 PM »
Hello

I am very new to collecting Czech glass and recently bought the attached vase on an auction site.
I think it may be Pavel Hlava but would be very grateful if anyone could give me more information.
I have seen vases like this by him but not with the "scalloping" - so concerned it may not be genuine.
Also, from the pictures - what would you think this vase may be worth? I paid £120

The sticker says Exbor so there is a nice starter 😊

Thank you Ivo for your reply.

I was wondering about the pattern and indeed if it is by Hlava, but I guess you are right the sticker is a good sign. :)

Would be very grateful if anyone else on the forum could tell me more about the design/possible designer.

Hi Kira,

Please note that two of the various threads that you have started for this item have been merged and tidied up to retain one source thread and the various comments do date.

If you wish to add a comment, or to "bump" a thread for renewed interest, please just add a reply yourself rather than start a new thread in another forum.

This merged thread has been retained in the "Bohemia etc." forum as the item does have an Exbor label.

Apologies Kevin

I wasn't sure where to post.
I'm glad the consensus seems to be Hlava.  Was hoping that was the case - just never seen one with the scalloping.

Thanks for your replies!

 :)
