vase # 837

This is  the only one of which I would have guessed could be continental Europe?  :-[

TIA

This is a fascinating vase, Pamela. I have not seen it before and it is intriguing. The iridescence appears to be top notch.

The fan motif (I can't think of a better way to describe it right now) in the horizontal panels reminds me of a Riihimaki pattern that is seen in bowls and stemmed comports. But the vase is not in any of the Riihimaki catalogues that I have. That doesn't rule out Riihimaki, of course - it's just that the vase is not shown in the catalogues that I have.

Poland is also possibility (Hortensja would be my guess) but again, it's not in the catalogue that I have.

Is it possible to see what the base of the vase looks like? And can you tell us if it has an "Inwald-like" mirror shiny grind on the base (although I really don't think the pattern is an Inwald one - but I would want to eliminate that maker from the enquiry).

Has anyone seen this vase in any other type of glass - or better still, in a catalogue?

Glen, thank you, also for the Mistic!
I'm glad I did no longer search on my own  :pb:

All the photos submitted came from Karrasburg - but, as we had definitely ruled out Brockwitz, gladly this vase is now here with me and I take some more images as requested.

It's always better to touch and handle the glass, and Riihimäki and even Schreiber / Hortensja were my possible thoughts also...

Here are a couple of images of the "Katherine" plate that I mentioned above (Riihimaki's 7259 in amber). The pattern reminds me of the horizontal motif in Pamela's vase.

Katherine is at least a very beautiful sister, I'd say  :thup:

the vase measures 197 mm height, base dia 76 mm, top dia 105 mm

Many thanks for those extra images, Pamela. It helps a lot. The base colour of the glass looks as if it may be amber and not clear (crystal). If it is amber, then that is a HUGE tick in the box for Riihimaki. The entire pattern concept of the vase says "Riihimaki" too.

No worries. It would have been an easier task to pin down if it had been amber. Marigold is good though  ;)

Thanks for the great photos, Pamela.

Especially for Glen!  :-*

More than three years have passed, and I guess we've got an attribution today. Please see page 10 of

Max Malky, Weisswasser O.L. ca 1930 pattern NORDSTERN

The pricelist page -7- indicates that NORDSTERN is out of production.
