Here is a pic of the lamp a friend owns...
Less crackle, but otherwise quite similar.

Found one more of these lamps, very nice colours.
The green areas contain some green glitter (aventurine?).

Wow!   I must say, will certainly be looking at for these types of lamps.  Never heard of Ikora until now.  Here is one I found during my searches for something else. Even though not crackled, still a nice piece indeed and has the original labels. Hope you like it

Ikora lamps are really beautiful.

But though very similar, the 3 lamp bases I posted in this thread could be from a different maker than WMF (see discussion above).
>> Here is another one on ebay.de, same shape as the two above, same decor as my other one -- see pic.
So all of them should be from the same maker...

Another one of these lamp bases, unusual colourway of green and pink/purple (unfortunately without light fitting; funnily, I run across these topless lamps from time to time -- one would think that it was more likely to find the metal part without the glass ;) )
A while ago I saw a very nice blue one.

According to the bohemianglass.org website these were made by Ernst Steinwald glassworks (Franz Tomschick from 1938) for Glasmanufaktur Karl Picking Dresden. https://www.bohemianglass.org/katalog/vaza-vz-5-370/detail/
Don't know if this applies to all the different lamps shown in this thread, but at least we have an attribution for some of them. :)
