Unknown (German?) label on solifleur - any idea?
astrid:
I've bought this solifleur a while ago, it probably came from Germany. I'm trying to identify the label. It has similarities to the Peill & Putzler label, but I've never heard of a variation on that, it might be a coincidence.
Does anyone know what it is, or has seen other pieces of glass with this label on it?

Hi Astrid
I suspect it to be a wholesaler´s label on a ´Marsberger Glas´ vase, but - just a hunch... :)
astrid:
Could be - the top looks a bit Marsberger, but the glass is patterned, it has little stripes all over it both on the front, back and sides. Haven't seen that sort of thing with Marsberger pieces so far. I'll see if I can make a close-up picture, maybe it's a clue...

... yep, not untypical for MG vases. The general shape reminds me of another design with a big hole
in the middle.
astrid:
Some close-up pictures. The finish of the surface, also on the base, is not the same as other Marsberger pieces in my collection, which are smoother. That wouldn't mean it isn't of course... but just enough to make me look further.
It doesn't have a particular high quality feel - but I couldn't resist buying because of the unknown label :)
