Mod: Images gone, please see posts below for alternative images

6.25 inches (16cms) high and 6 inches ( 15.3cms) diameter.  8 "faceted" sides and smooth polished base.  Any ideas please?

Looks like could be used as an ice bucket or of course just a vase.

Hi Emmi,
1930's Rudolf Schrotter, Rudolfova hut, for Josef Inwald a.s. Pattern number 11370. Information from the pre 1958 catalogue, page 43, which is on the CD database with Marcus' book, Sklo Union: Art Before Industry.
If I know, I'll comment. If I think I know, I'll have a go. If I have no idea, I'll just keep quiet and learn from others, so the next time I'll know.

As Emmi's pics seem to have vanished, here is mine for reference :D

Michael

edit: mine has a flat polished base, in opposite to >> this one on CW (which seems to have the typical Sklo Union bird-bath base...)
Woud this point to pre WW2 production?
