Hi,

Della and I discussed this work, and thought board members would be interested in this vase:

Della recently discovered this item,and bought it, and asked my advice regarding an ID. Della has discovered a graduation work, by Dagmar Kudrova, dating to 1956, and known as "Dite" or "Child". Dagmar Kudrova, went on to become a leading designer with Bohemia Podebrady, working alongside Ladislav Oliva and Jiri Repasek.

Graduation works such as this, are a very uncommon find, and it is a pleasure to see this, an item that was sadly absent from Kudrova's recent retrospective exhibition in the Czech Republic.

Thank you, Della, for the new images. An amazing find.

Regards,

Marcus

Marcus is very modest, Andy, and doesn't seem to accept compliments very well (according to his blushing smilie). However, credit where credit where credit is due, in this case, to Marcus. I just found the piece and asked the him for advice.
Sorry if I embarrased you, Marcus. It was not my intention.
