Heya experts!

Was this vase (http://picasaweb.google.com/exat53/PreGlasTschechoslowakei#5343764012546061170) from Dusans Picasa webalbum ever made as a bowl with the measurements 21cmx8cm?

Hi Emil,
Hermanova Hut, pattern #20273 according to CD-database of ´Sklo Union -
Art before Industry´ by Marcus Newhall.

Thanks Dirk!

...and sorry that I'm a bit thick, but just to clarify, is the pattern number you provided for the bowl or the vase?

Best Regards!

PS: I bought a Sklo vase for 1SEK today (that's 0,1 Euro) on a Swedish auction site and two pieces in the Rhapsody range (a triangular vase that's 20cm tall and something that looks like a smallish basket) for 50 Euro. SWEET! DS  

EDIT: These two http://www.kolonn.se/bilder/59/RIMG0043-1429101800.JPG

... sorry for being a bit short - phoning and typing at the same time... 
The database shows a range of pieces in this design: vase, bowls, candleholder etc.
The pattern number is that of the 22cm bowl.

Kind regards,
Dirk

You people are awesome, and I don't mean that in an every day awesome way. You genuinely rock.

Thanks!

Just an observation Emil before someone shouts at you.    Sklo simply means Glass in Czech, so almost anything on the board would be Sklo (i.e. Glass). If you're meaning Czechoslovakian pressed glass production you should really be saying Sklo Union (i.e. the name of the marketing group to which many of the pressed glass factories belonged.) Hope this helps.  :thup:

Thanks Anne!

I was under the assumption that "everyone" uses the abbreviation "Sklo" when they actually mean the "Sklo Union". Anyway, whenever I say "Sklo" I mean the "Sklo Union" since Czechoslovakian is not my native tounge.

...and I know how it feels. I'm on most of the bonsai forum around and when someone spells it "banzai" or "bonzai" it really feels like I'm gonna die within minutes.
