i.d. please for possible Czech vase
Paul S.:
from this morning's sortie - and thought that it might have been an example of 'neodymium' - which seems to be avoiding me so far. Has a lovely lilac/pink tint - but despite running around the house to expose to various kinds of light it doesn't seem to change. I was waiting for it to go blue somewhere along the line?? Quite big - 25.75 cms. tall and about 18.25 cms. at the widest, with some reasonable wear on the rim of the foot. It has these occasional frosted lenses. I'm thinking Czechoslovakian - it has a reasonable 'bird bath' base although I don't see anything too close in Mark Hill's book - just a thought, but with these lenses might it have a little in common with some of the designs by Vizner for Libochovice. Sure I am wrong so grateful for some guidance please, and thanks for looking. Paul S.
Max:
I've got that one somewhere and mine certainly wasn't neodymium. I thought it could've been Czech too and was sure I'd put it on the board, but can't find the thread. It was quite a while ago, so I might've just sent a photo to Marcus at that time.
Paul S.:
thanks Max - and as you will know, these pics. don't do the colour justice, especially in the sunshine, when it really is beautiful. cheers Paul S.
Anne:
Yes we've definitely had this pattern on the board before, but like Max I can't find it either. :cry:
Paul S.:
I had high hopes of a quick attribution for this one, but obviously the Gods were against me, although I have a feeling the design is not that old, and just thought it might have been an easy one (how wrong can you be). So when I saw the smaller blue vase on Sunday morning, I just had to buy it, to keep the other company :) Compared to the larger version, the blue vase is only 165mm tall, but is an exact design copy - I still believe it is Czechoslovakian, and I hope someone might be able to give me an id please, and thanks for looking.
