Overcast grey and raining here, so I've gone for the bright colours this week.

Astrid, I really do like your Peill & Putzler display -- so many attractive vases.  Lovely!

astrid:
I really love Peill & Putzler vase designs, especially the ones from the 60s-70s, but even the later ones strike a chord. I've already made up my mind this year to make P&P one of my specialized areas of glass collecting, spending a little more than usual to pick up the better ones.

I'm especially happy with the relatively newly acquired textured vase on the right of the middle picture (I suspect it's by Horst Tüselmann). No picture manages to do it justice (making it a very positive surpise when it arrived, as I hadn't seen it 'live'). It's a thickwalled vase, and the pattern is made by very deep etching (I think), making little canyons deep in the surface giving it it's pattern effect. It's an extremely tactile piece. When I just bought it, every time I walked past it, I had to 'caress' it to feel the tectile structure of it. I'm sooo happy with that one!  :smg:

Anik R:
I'm also tactile, so I know what you mean about caressing your glass, Astrid.  :)

I love the vases in your first picture -- the third and second from the right.  Then again, I think all your P&P vases are wonderful (with the exception of the white and clear 'swirly' one in the first photo -- too delicate-looking for my taste.)  Unfortunately, I still have a very hard time recognizing German glass, regardless of the glassworks, so my collection is extremely limited. 


Once again, fantastic collection!  :hi:
