Is this an Arts & crafts or Nouveau vase?
« on: December 07, 2009, 08:50:05 PM »
Hello everyone!
A friend of mine passed away sadly and has some glass in his collection and thought I might post some pics on here on behalf of his son.This stunning vase is quite tall and sat in his lounge window and I was attracted to it right away though Deco is usually my field I guessed this was older.
Does anyone have any clues at all please?
The last pic is a collection of the other glass he had in the window so any other input would help a great deal.
Thanks very much!
Nige

it is from both the art nouveau and arts and crafts period (probably, it could be newer than that too)  but to my eye it doesn't appear to have the styling of either.

Somebody will correct me(again) if I'm wrong but are the stemmed pieces Empoli?

The green brandy goblet one looks like the one Ivo kindly Id'd for me as probably either bohemian or german.

The stemmed pieces are possibly Empoli. The crackle vase is Royal Brierley  and probably uranium. We'd need to see the bases of the pulled rim pieces. The plain piece with a clear base is likely Caithness. The frilled piece could be Victorian, as could the ribbed piece with the ruffled rim.

Hi everyone
Wow! can't thank you enough! I am sure my friend will be pleased! I don't know what they are planning to do with the pieces but I can assure you I am so grateful for the input I am amazed by the knowledge people have! I myself would love the tall vase in the 1st picture may do a bit of batting my eyelids haha!

I didn't know those crackle vases were RB!
I had a non-uranium green one. I used to keep clothes-pegs in it, until I discovered that every man and his dog had one and now it's either packed away, or given to a charity shop.....

What's PKH?
