Glass / Re: Art Deco green vase red 'flame' splotches - Schneider
« Last post by Greg. on June 28, 2025, 02:54:18 PM »
Hi M,

The below link shows the above referenced vase in Mosquito's post with a photo or catalogue reference and its attributed to Erwin Pfohl and Josephinenhütte. One of the photos shows an illustration showing a number of examples from this range, some of the colourways also look very similar to your example.

https://ebay.us/m/iBmTjS

Here's a rough Google translation of the the eBay description:-

""Design: Very rare, Art Deco "Vineta Crystal" vase, designed by Erwin Pfohl for the Josephine Glassworks in Schreiberhau (now Szklarska Poręba, Poland), manufactured around 1930. Mouth-blown, with powder fusion, in green and red, mold number 0673/8. This vase is documented in the most important Josephinenhütte book of the 20th century, page 316. A specimen is also located in the Passau Glass Museum in Germany. This is the only example of this series we have ever seen outside of a museum. This Vineta Crystal series by Josephinenhütte was a response to the "Ikora" glass series by its competitor (WMF). The glass contains some production-related internal bubbles, like small scratches, which are only visible with a magnifying glass."

Hope this helps.

Glass / ID please. Anchor Hocking Queen Mary candy?
« Last post by TimelessGlass on June 28, 2025, 10:31:20 AM »
Hi all,

I adore this Art Deco inspired lidded dish. I am thinking too big for a dressing table set ?
Maybe bon bon/candy dish.
Any ideas please?
The Impressed Pattern number or name is practically illegible. Seems to be a series of both letters & numbers on the inside of the lid.
Dimensions- 7" across
Height- 2.5"
Base to finial - 5"

As always, advise & Info greatly appreciated.
Sharron.

Hi Sue

Thank you, and yes I remember the symposium well although it's a few years ago now!  If you remember , I started the paperweight section of the talk, speaking about John Ford paperweights. I gave a subset of the talk to the NPS a couple of years later and amazingly one of the members had a John Ford paperweight and brought it to the meeting, talk about nonplussed!  First and last time I have ever handled one. 

Best regards

Derek

I don't think anywhere is safe on the floor in my place, Sue. Or stairs for that matter. For some reason I'm not known for being careful ... can't think why 🤔 🤥. At the minute it sits on an Arts & Crafts writing desk. It seems comfortable there. 😊

France / Re: Legras & Cie. St Denis, Paris ..... Very large vase, for show.

 :) You'll have to find some niche corner for it to be on its own in. It is big enough to sit on the floor, in a safe position. I have put a large vase in the corner of the turn of the stairs.

You are correct, I was wrong, I'm sorry.  :-[
I haven't forgotten you though, or the fabulous talk you gave at the Perth Conference.  :)

Apologies Sue!

I assumed incorrectly, that it was Christine who had made your post!

Allan Scott thinks that the SGS exhibition at the Strathearn Gallery
in Crieff was held in either 1999 or 2000.

He has copied of all the SGS catalogues up to 1998.
