Title: Vaclav Zajic - Confused ID
Post by: Frank on June 10, 2011, 07:13:52 PM
Newhall illustrates a piece in his book and database as 3527 with 3528 showing no image. There is no additional Libochovice material to confirm this ID.

Jindrich has a Vaclav Zajic exhibition catalogue on his site http://www.cs-sklo.cz/ that shows this vase as 3528 and a different design for 3527.

Exhibition catalogues being notorious for muddling IDs a third source is needed to clairify the ID.

Views of 3527 or IS it 3528 can be seen here (http://sklo-union-glass.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_images.tpl&product_id=232&category_id=26&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1)

Probably not much help as the CGR is also known to have errors, but a 3527 vase (different from the one in the link and same as in the exhibition catalogue) is pictured in the 1976/10 issue:

 I assume the pattern number comes from the exhibition catalogue rather than the manufacturer catalogue. :-\

That picture predates the exhibition catalogue by many years so it seems likely that 3528 is the correct ID for the one I show. But it would be nice to get a Libochovice catalogue confirmation.

Based on the above information I have now updated the linked piece to be 3258 with an explanation and link to GMB

Ah, yes...  I obviously should have checked that before I posted...  :spls:
