Topic: High relief pressed glass vase ID Help Please

That's the same vase I linked to.  

I missed your link, Max, in the discussion about the auction house.   Seeing it made the rest of the thread make sense. I thought I was just lost -- well, more lost than usual.

The Iris piece 11283 is definitely the same vase is a different color glass...... It is definitely a Barolac piece.....

Tulips... Iris's... .. I guess I need a flower identification board also...... I thought they were Tulips also.....

Thanks again..... You guys are great!! :thup: :thup:

Hi,

Barolac is a mark, which, apparently, was jointly used, and owned, by Josef Inwald and John Jenkins & Sons Ltd. All this information is available in Marcus Newhall's book, in collaboration with Glen Thistlewood, who have worked very hard to enlighten us about this area of Czech glass making.

Hello again!!

Can anyone give me the years that this mold was used?

TIA,  Craig

Hi,
"Barolac" as correctly Della said is not company but trade mark of special type of pressed glass production - always opalescent. It had been produced befor WWII in Czechoslovakia, later moulds had been used in Sklo Union factories. This is not "Barolac" piece but piece produced with ussage of same or simmilar mould. Colour does not correspond to Czechoslovakian production, as far as I know. Let we wait for Marcus' decision.

Barolac was not "always opalescent".
