As far as I know, he did not use canes made at Vasart, because he was working on his own then.

Glass / Re: heavy glass vase - attributed to Riihimaki but I'm not so sure, Any ideas?
« Last post by essi on Yesterday at 07:55:50 PM »Have a look at Riihimaki Tamara Aladin 1361 vase on google images.
For some reason there were a few vases that carried an acid etched mark and engraved serial numbers.
Unfortunately i dont know if they all were signed.
Hope this is of some help.

Glass / Re: Fused sphere surface decoration query.
« Last post by Ekimp on Yesterday at 07:52:56 PM »Thanks. I was looking at some of that the other day and should have remembered. That does look like the silver granulation technique.
I wonder, does the term Coraline apply to larger grades too? I was looking for something with a ball diameter of around 4 to 6mm, infilling a geometric panel. Coraline perfectly matches what I described but should have been more specific on size.
I’ll have a search but suspect I’ll just get the small grade stuff.

Glass / Stuart set: green/clear (1920-30)
« Last post by AlyB on Yesterday at 07:23:31 PM »Hi all: I'm looking for more information on a decanter/glass set. It's definitely Stuart as the labels are still on the glasses, and it was most likely bought in Australia in the 1920s-1930s, from what I know. It could be earlier, but unlikely to be later (unless the story I have is completely false). I've done a google image search and just some general research into Stuart during this period, but not finding much.
Any help is welcomed!
Thanks,
AJ

Glass / Fused sphere surface decoration query.
« Last post by Ekimp on Yesterday at 05:43:34 PM »In silversmithing, there is a technique called Granulation where small silver spheres are fused to a substrate like this: https://www.lot-art.com/auction-lots/Lois-Hill-Sterling-Silver-Granulation-Motif-Earrings-for-Non-Pierced-Ears/itmg712685-loi_hill_silver-28.8.20-ebth
Does anyone know anything about a similar process used in antique glass as a surface decoration (but not moulding for a similar effect) and what it’s called or who might have used it - possibly France or Bohemia?
There is this for modern “fused glass”. This sort of thing but thinking of something used on 19th century vessels to decorate panels.

Glass / My Latest buy for indentification of an unusual Glass Vase - maker - age????
« Last post by glassamore on Yesterday at 04:51:44 PM »Hello all you informative glass lovers
I am back again with my latest buy. I only bought it as I loved the shape but was intrigued by the pitted body of this vase.
As you can see by the pictures it is a hand blown vase with a crimped foot and a overturned drip lip. It has a rough unpolished pontil. The body is rough and pitted. I don't know if the pitting is intentional or if its been buried or some one has tried to age the vase? Either way I like it and reminds me of a Galle vase but I may be influenced by the colour and shape of this strange vase.
As always thank you in advance to any pointers - I have search and searched but not come up with a name of maker or age - It does "feel" antique or at lease vintage.
With best regards
