British & Irish Glass / Re: Stuart Stratford Cocktail Shaker
« Last post by NevB on Yesterday at 05:06:38 PM »After studying the mark I see it's the one used from 1926-50, a bit older than I thought.

Glass / Re: Pendant lamp shade w/ enamel trail/spot decoration - poss. Czech/Austrian/German
« Last post by flying free on Yesterday at 04:42:23 PM »Pressglas Korrespondenz 2012 2 Seite 24/30 scroll down to see jug on right hand side
Carafe by Ludwig Sutterlin for Fritz Heckert 1902
Has the painted green spots on.
Looking at your lamp again I feel Josephinenhutte could have made this piece before decoration. Just a thought.
However there is another piece on page 22 which has similarities somehow - also Fritz Heckert

Glass / Re: Beehive mercury glass 'Tango' spatter bowl silberglas - Kralik or another maker?
« Last post by flying free on July 05, 2025, 11:57:49 PM »honestly I've no idea. Charles Hajdamach gave a complete description of this technique and how incredibly difficult it was to achieve but I'm still bemused how they managed to make it, and in a beehive mold. It's a really beautiful piece of glass.

« Last post by flying free on July 05, 2025, 07:57:30 PM »Interesting? Page II 53 it lists Frankl Bruder as 'Glassexport' (1898-1899 Export-Kompass).
Not as a glassmaker or even glass refinery. Were they exporting their own items made in their factories or were they a middle-man?

« Last post by flying free on July 05, 2025, 07:38:34 PM »There is a similarity with all yours but is the foot the same?
Number 1 doesn't look like it fits though. The others, if the foot is the same, could have been stretched or squashed I guess, which is what I was thinking about mine compared to yours. That mine had been slightly squashed down. But in theory the rings look the same as on yours apart from number 1

« Last post by glassobsessed on July 05, 2025, 07:34:18 PM »I have been looking at them trying to decide if they could all be from the same maker, essentially with the same mould I guess, could make the argument either way. A vase can be hot worked after it has been given a moulded shape, how many of the variations above could that account for? Have to admit to not knowing much about the subtleties of using moulds.
