Interesting ;D
Im sure someone will recognise sticker and/or signature.
You could have a look through this list for now.

Hi,
this one sneaked too rapidly from the front page, so I missed it.
However, signed by Professor Jan Černy, the  A on the label would have carried the word Art between the bottom legs of the A, and the word Czechoslovakia, below the square. This label was used for limited edition, signed items. Probably made in Zelezny Brod.
Regards,
Marcus

Hi Marcus!

Many thanks for the Info - very much appreciated.

You've said it's a limited edition so I'm guessing it must be worth more than the £5 I paid for it  :) :) :hiclp:

Regards
Richard

Only if someone is willing to pay more of course. I'd pay 5 euros...  >:D

Does it have a name I wonder, like 'Lyre' vase? Very unusual piece anyway.
