Glass / Re: Baccarat Uranium Goblet
« Last post by flying free on July 16, 2024, 12:48:03 AM »
The shape is very similar to this decorated enamelled one from Dyatkovo date 1903, however I am not sure (I don't know enough about these to give an informed opinion so best to wait to see if Mr Geiselberger comes back with more information) about the colour of the green being right for them.  Scroll down to Seite 4 von 21 Seiten on this link :
https://www.pressglas-korrespondenz.de/aktuelles/pdf/pk-2016-2w-peltonen-pokal-russland-1841-1917.pdf



The item also decorated enamelled here on Seite 5 von 16 appears to show the 1/4 on the foot and gives more information:
https://www.pressglas-korrespondenz.de/aktuelles/pdf/pk-2014-4w-sg-dyatkovo-pokal-gruen-1900.pdf

I believe from translation from Pressglas Korrespondenz 2014-4, that it says this goblet with 1/4 on the foot is from Dyatkovo date 1903.


You could reply to Mareike Michl at PK and send those two links and ask what they think regarding it being from Dyatkovo given the marks on the base of your goblet.

Thank you for updating this thread.  It will be interesting to see which other makers might come to light and the dates you've been given are more where I thought it could be.

Glass Trinket Sets / Uranium Green Atomiser Bottle
« Last post by NevB on July 15, 2024, 10:09:48 AM »
I assume this bottle is missing an atomiser not a stopper/lid, it has a very faint moulded Czechoslovakia mark on the bottom. I've had a look on GTS but can't find it. I will keep looking.

I've had a reply from Mareike Michl at PK, she says she doubts that it is Launay Hautin because of the colour, she doesn't mention Baccarat. She says it could be No.2099 shown in the 1878 Vallerysthal catalogue but the illustration isn't clear, I've not been able to find that catalogue. Another possibility is Villeroy Boch, late 19thC. She's going to pass the photo onto a collector who has done research into this type of glass.

Glass / Re: Stourbridge? Art Nouveau rainbow stripe vase

I'm not convinced by the Fieldings attribution. I've only ever seen Filamentosa in brown, green or reddish with white stripes, usually with a pale uranium base and opalescence at the top. It also seems too large. Fieldings is not always correct

My thoughts are the same.  The colours on yours are strikingly different especially the yellow and green.  Two other things strike me:
1) The shape.  The Webb filamentosa items I've seen seem to be in quite old fashioned shapes to my eye (with the exception of one nice dimpled squat bottle shape being sold and listed as Filamentosa). 
The shape of yours is really nicely balanced and quite contemporary.  I'm not suggesting it is a contemporary piece (maybe Bohemian?) just suggesting the shape doesn't remind me of Webb.
2) The pulls - they are pulled at an angle.  Mostly the Filamentosa vases seem to have vertical pulls.

Glass / Pressed Blue Candle Holder - Scandinavian? Help with ID please
« Last post by Birkyc on July 14, 2024, 03:42:00 PM »
I acquired this small candle holder yesterday at boot sale. I thought it had some style so set about the web with the usual gusto. Sadly I have drawn a blank on an attrbution. I have come across a few of them, mostly blue and one in a dusky pink. Two of the attributions are for 2 different Czech glassmakers and quote different designers. I believe both of these may be incorrect. They also claim it is reversible so that it could be used as a vase, as the base is simply ground it was clearly not designed to be used in that way.  I also came across a couple for sale in Denmark, one of which had an applied logo for a Danish Institution, so I'm leaning towards it being Danish, possibly Holmegaard, or at least Scandinavian. Anyone recognise it?

It stands 12.5cm tall, 9cm maximum width at the base, 5.5cm maximum depth at the base, the top is roughly 5.5cm square and it wighs 400g.

Thank you in anticipation.

Glass Paperweights / Re: Has anyone ever seen a paperweight this big?
« Last post by Anne E.B. on July 13, 2024, 09:39:33 AM »
Just a thought, and I may be way off here, but I just wonder if it isn't in fact a paperweight, but a nightlight.  It looks to be on an LED base which makes it change colour/s...?
