Title: Ovoid vase Czech??
Post by: malcmat on February 16, 2013, 04:22:23 PM

Hi, not had much luck in locating this ovoid vase with ribbed sides although it does remind me of some Czech glass.
Its 2.069 kg , 7.750 inches tall, 5 inches long and 2.5 inches wide.
Flat polished base with some ware scratches and a flat polished rim
Many thanks
Malc

Hi,
I believe your vase is German, Beyer & Co.  See this thread:  Beyer vase (http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,29438.msg159243.html#msg159243)

Thank you so much Anik it was brought from Poland by some friends a couple of years ago who passed it on to me. I love 60/70s design glass and hope to find out if Beyer is still producing ?
Many thanks

You're not alone in thinking Czech. I see them regularly on eBay being sold as Czech.
