I suspect this vase may be Harrachov - if not who made it?

I did post the link I just put the pictures there so you knew which I referred to.  Sorry I forgot about they must be my own.

hello Ross  -  I hate to be a killjoy, but looking at the colour of the ground we seem to be back with this 'pale coffee', of which we had something similar recently I believe -  a very common base colour for inumerable run-of-the mill type vases.    I don't see the decoration in your vase as anything special (would not agree with the word 'excellent) -and certainly many of these vases had decorators initials/whatever on the base - an attribution for which usually proves illusive.        Have to be honest and admit that I don't say this with authority  -  but rather with experience born of seeing many generically similar pieces on my travels.    I believe that if it were Moser, you really would know.    I should stick flowers in it and enjoy the colours. :)    However, may I ask you a question please  -  when you use the name Harrachov, is this one and the same as Harrach - which is the nearest I can get in the Truitt's book ?    Sorry to seem ignorant having just slagged off your vase. :D

Paul it seems the factory is Harrachov but they often just used Harrach in their labels.  Both originated from a major Austro-Hungarian family who owned the works from 1763 - 1943.  So I am happy with either name.  I suspect I got into the habit of calling it Harrachov, because I also have some pieces of Harrtil glass and their maker is always quoted as Harrachov.

I'll throw a curve into this as the Great Glass Manufacturer's section has now placed PK as probably Krystallglasfabrik Freiherr von Poschinger, Germany & they show early Poschinger marks for comparison. Not saying thats conclusive, just saying that possibility is now listed. I agree with Christine about quality, they run fair to very good...just depends on what you find. Ken
